Ethanol is polar, and so is water. "Like dissolves like," so those two liquids will be miscible, meaning they will dissolve each other. Carbon tetrachloride, meanwhile, is non-polar. Its intermolecular forces are incompatible with water's, so polar water will not be able to dissolve it.
What else can I help you with?
Explain why ethanol will dissolve in water and carbon tetrachloride will not?
Ethanol is a polar molecule because of the hydroxyl group (CH3CH2-OH). Carbon tetrachloride (C-CL4) is non-polar and does not exhibit hydrogen bonding. Many organic compounds are water soluble because of their polar nature i.e. acetone, citric acid, and others.
What Solid iodine dissolve in?
Solid iodine dissolves in organic solvents such as carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, or diethyl ether. It does not dissolve readily in water.
Is carbon tetrachloride CCl4 soluble in water?
because it is non polar and water is polar. polar dissolve with polar. nonpolar dissolve with nonpolar
Is iodine soluble?
It is a little but i have no idea!!
Would ccl4 dissolve in h2o?
No it wont because it is non-polar and hence cannot break the hydrogen bonds in water and get dissolved

Does carbon dioxide dissolve in ethanol?
Carbon dioxide has a very low solubility in ethanol.
What Solid iodine dissolve in?
Solid iodine dissolves in organic solvents such as carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, or diethyl ether. It does not dissolve readily in water.
Will carbon tetrachloride dissolve Iodine?
yes it will because both iodine I2 and Carbon tetrachloride CCL4 are both non polar It will turn a deep violet color when reacted Remeber the phrase, " like dissolves like" this is different interms of water. Although Iodine is to some degree soluble in water, it is not as soluble as it is in CCL4, because water is a poler compound, remember positive and negative deltas's so in this case it is polar water cannot effiviently dissolve nonpolar Iodine
Is carbon tetrachloride CCl4 soluble in water?
because it is non polar and water is polar. polar dissolve with polar. nonpolar dissolve with nonpolar
Is iodine soluble?
It is a little but i have no idea!!
Is carbon tetrachloride CCl4 float on water?
No, carbon tetrachloride does not float on water because it is immiscible with, and heavier than water, and forms a lower layer.
Would ccl4 dissolve in h2o?
No it wont because it is non-polar and hence cannot break the hydrogen bonds in water and get dissolved
Which alcohol is more soluble in water chloroform CHCL3 or carbon tetrachloride CCL4?
Chloroform; it is a polar molecule (like water) as opposed to carbon tetrachloride, which is nonpolar (a tetrahedral shape with identical bonds and electronegative pulls that balance out). Like substances dissolve like substances, thus chloroform dissolves more in water.
Does carbon dissolve in water?
No, carbon does not dissolve in water.
Why are lipids soaked in ethanol in an emulsion test?
Lipids are soaked in water because they do not dissolve in water but the ethanol will allow the lipid to dissolve such that when diluted the ethanol will fall out of solution to form an emulsion.
What are 3 solvents?
Water, Alcohol, and Carbon Tetrachloride.
