What does so2 dissolve in?
It dissolve in polar solvents.It dissolve well in water.
What do you call a substance that does not dissolve in water?
Substances that do not dissolve in water are called "insoluble" or "non-soluble." For water (a polar molecule), anything non-polar will not dissolve, including hexane, methane, ethane, propane, octane, oils, waxes, and plastics.
Is carbon tetrachloride CCl4 soluble in water?
because it is non polar and water is polar. polar dissolve with polar. nonpolar dissolve with nonpolar
Substances unable to dissolve in water?
I'm not sure what your asking but the term for substances that are unable to dissolve in water are called unsoluable.

Yes,all chlorides of group 1 dissolve very well.
How does one dissolve methane gas?

Which of the following would be most soluble or miscible in cbr4 and which one will be more soluble in water A. NaCl B. HCl C. CH3OH D. CH4 E. C2H6?
Polar molecules dissolve in polar solvents (like water), and non-polar molecules dissolve in non-polar solvents (like CBr4). NaCl and HCl will both dissolve in water, and CH4 and C2H6 will dissolve in CBr4. CH3OH will likely dissolve in water as well. ---------- Methanol is soluble/miscible in water at all concentrations. It will likely also interact well with non-polar solvents like Tetrabromomethane. Keep in mind that methane and ethane are gasses at STP, but should dissolve well in Tetrabromomethane in the right conditions.
Do mono saccharides dissolve well in water?
Monosaccharides will dissolve well in water. This is made possible by the oxygen in the carbohydrates which will create polar bonds.
