A polar solute would be insoluble in a non-polar solvent. The rule of thumb is "likes dissolve likes".
Octane is insoluble in water because it is a nonpolar compound.
Water molecules are polar while hexanol (apart from the hydroxide group) is nonpolar due to its uniform ring structure. Remember the phrase like dissolves like. These aren't similar so hexanol is insoluble
Two important rules are: - polar compounds are soluble in water - nonpolar compounds are soluble in nonpolar solvents But is essential to make experiments to determine the solubility.
1-decanol is insoluble in water and non-polar.
O2
Yes, vitamin A is a type of nonpolar molecule. Like other nonpolar molecules, it is insoluble in water and soluble in fat.
Octane is insoluble in water because it is a nonpolar compound.
Because sodium chloride is a polar compound and the components of gasoline are not.
Olive oil, gasoline, kerosine, lard, peanut oil. Any nonpolar molecule, really.

No, cyclohexene is not soluble in water. Cyclohexene is a nonpolar compound, while water is a polar solvent. Generally, nonpolar compounds are not soluble in polar solvents like water. Therefore, cyclohexene tends to be immiscible or insoluble in water.

Yes. Heptyl alcohol has a seven carbon chain which caused its nonpolar characteristics to dominate over the polar characteristics making it insoluble in water.
Salt is insoluble in gasoline because of their composition. Gasoline has molecules that are nonpolar meaning electrons share the same charge. On the other hand, salt is polar because its molecules having uneven charges. This would cause the salt to dissolve.
Sulfur exists as S8. S8 is 8 sulfur atoms covalently bonded in a ring. Each S atom has two lone pairs of electrons. The entire molecule is nonpolar. "Like dissolves like" so water which is polar will not dissolve S8 which is nonpolar. S8 dissolve in liquids like toluene, which is also nonpolar. http://www.sciencelab.com/xMSDS-Sulfur_Lump-9925144 How about baking soda?
