Why does methane dissolve in ethanol?
ethanol contains both a polar and a nonpolar part. The hydroxyl (OH) part is polar and the thane is non polar. so methane which is nonpolar can be dissolved by the ethane as the saying goes ''like dissolves like''.
What substance would dissolve iodine?
Because iodine is nonpolar, a nonpolar substance like ethanol would dissolve it. Iodine is insoluble in polar substances like water.
Is iodine polar or nonpolar?
nonpolar
Ammonia polar or nonpolar?
polar!
Is H2O2 polar or nonpolar?
polar
Is ethanol a polar or a nonpolar molecule?
Polar.
Is hexane soluble in ethanol?
No, because "like" disolves "like". Ethanol is polar. Hexane is nonpolar.

Is ethyl alcohol polar or nonpolar?
Ethanol, or ethyl alcohol, is a polar molecule, due to the hydroxyl group.
Why is iodine soluble in ethanol?
because iodine is nonpolar and ethanol is non-polar solvent so like dissolves like
Are nonpolar molecules generally soluble in water?
No. Water has polar molecules so only polar molecules will dissolve in water. Nonpolar molecules will only dissolve in nonpolar solvents. For example, lipids will dissolve in ethanol.
Why sodium chloride is insoluble in alcohol?
Because sodium chloride is a polar compound and ethanol is nonpolar.
Are liquids miscible in water?
It depends, polar lipids such as ethanol are soluble but nonpolar liquids, such as hexane, are insoluble.
Are lipids polar or nonpolar?
nonpolar or polar
Ethanol is a chemical compound with the formula C2H5OH. The end with the -CH3 group is nonpolar while the end with the -OH group is polar. This means that ethanol is able to dissolve?
Yes, ethanol is a solvent.
Is ClF4 plus polar or nonpolar?
Non polar
Is SF3 polar or nonpolar?
yes
