Is water soluble in cyclohexane?

No, the polarity of water contrasts with and repels the nonpolar substane that is cyclohexane.


What happens when water is mixed with cyclohexane?

Water does not mix with cyclohexane because water is polar and cyclohexane is nonpolar. They will form two separate layers, with water on top and cyclohexane on the bottom, due to their difference in polarity. This separation is due to the principle of "like dissolves like," where polar substances dissolve in polar solvents and nonpolar substances dissolve in nonpolar solvents.


Is cyclohexane miscible in water?

No. Cyclohexane is non-polar and water is polar, and so they will not mix with each other.


What are immiscible substances?

Immiscible means incapable of mixing, but you'd (you might) have to ask further incase there is a special solution called 'immiscible solution' of which its inability to mix is only one aspect of it.


What is the pka of cyclohexane?

pKa is measured for acid in aqueous solution while hexane is an organic liquid immiscible with water so pKa value is meaning less for hexane.


Does cyclohexane produce ions in water?

No, cyclohexane does not produce ions in water. Since cyclohexane is a nonpolar molecule, it does not dissociate into ions when placed in an aqueous solution.


I need a list of miscible and immiscible liquids.?

What is the chemical formula for cyclohexane and bromine and water?

The chemical formula for cyclohexane is C6H12, for bromine it is Br2, and for water it is H2O.


Which is more acidic water or cyclohexane?

Water is more acidic than cyclohexane because water can donate a proton (H+) to another substance, while cyclohexane cannot easily donate protons. Additionally, water has a higher tendency to form hydronium ions (H3O+) in solution, which contributes to its acidity compared to cyclohexane.


What is the pH of cyclohexane?

Cyclohexane is a nonpolar solvent and does not ionize in water, so it does not have a pH value.


Is chloroform miscible with water or with cyclohexane?

Chloroform is miscible with water, forming a homogenous liquid mixture due to its polar nature. However, it is not miscible with cyclohexane, as cyclohexane is nonpolar and does not form a stable mixture with polar compounds like chloroform.


When 6 drops of cyclohexane is put in 2ml of water is it polar or non polar?

Cyclohexane is a nonpolar molecule, while water is a polar molecule. When 6 drops of cyclohexane are added to 2 mL of water, the two substances will not mix due to the difference in polarity, with the cyclohexane forming a separate nonpolar layer on top of the polar water layer.
