Is cyclohexane a polar solvent or a non- polar solvent?

Cyclohexane is a non polar solvent.


Is cyclohexane a polar solvent or a non polar solvent?

It is nonpolar


What does a polar solvent dissolve in?

a polar solvent dissolves a non polar solute


What happen when a non-polar solute is mixed in a non-polar solvent?

the non polar solute gets dissolved as non polar solutes tend to dissolve in non polar solvents than in polar solvents. for eg: benzene(non polar solute) gets dissolved in carbon tetrachloride which is a non polar solvent but not in water because it is a polar solvent.


Is nitrobenzene polar?

Yes, nitrobenzene is a polar compound due to the electronegative nitro group attached to the benzene ring. This creates an uneven distribution of charge, with the nitro group being more negative and the benzene ring being more positive, resulting in a polar molecule.


Is the following combinations expected to be soluble or insoluble polar solute and non-polar solvent?

A polar solute is expected to be soluble in a non-polar solvent. This is because "like dissolves like" – polar molecules tend to dissolve in polar solvents, and non-polar molecules dissolve in non-polar solvents.


Is water a non-polar solvent?

No, water is a polar solvent because of the polar oxygen-hydrogen bonds and the geometry of the compound.


What is the difference in a polar solvent and a non-polar solvent?

In polar solvents,the center of positive and negative charges do not coincide with each other and forms a dipole.The most common polar solvent is water. In non polar solvents the partially charges or poles do not exist.


What are the Differences between polar solvent and non polar solvent?

A polar solvent is a compound which has dipole moments which allow compounds which are able to form ion-dipole moments to dissolve. Non-polar solvent refers to compounds which have no polarity,(no dipole moments, or that the polarity is cancelled out), such as CCl4.


Is Caesium polar or non-polar?

Caesium is a chemical element not a solvent.


What is a typical non-polar solvent used in various chemical processes?

A typical non-polar solvent used in various chemical processes is hexane.
