high polar
What else can I help you with?
Gasoline is not solubal in water because gasoline is?
Gasoline is hydrophobic because the molecules are non-polar. Only polar molecules are soluble in water.
Why does hexane not form a solution with water?
Water is a polar molecule (is a dipole, has a positive end and a negative end), hexane is a non-polar molecule. Like dissolves like. Water will dissolve other polar molecules, like HCl and NH3. Hexane will dissolve non-polar molecules like benzene or toluene.
Is n-octane polar?
water is polar and immiscible with the non-polar octanol.
Why does ethanol dissolve in both water and gasoline?
Ethanol has a polar and non polar end the polar end will be attracted to water and the non polar end will dissolve in gasoline but its limited because of size of the molecule and not having the strongest attractive forces
If an unknown solid substance is non polar will it matter if distilled or tap water is used to prepare a solution of this substance?
If the solid substance is nonpolar, it will more likely dissolve better in an organic solvent rather than water. In this case, using distilled or tap water to prepare a solution may not make a significant difference in the solubility of the substance since it is nonpolar and not likely to dissolve well in water regardless.
Is coconut water non-polar?
Coconut water is primarily water, which is a polar molecule due to its asymmetrical distribution of charge. Therefore, coconut water is not non-polar.
Why do oil and water hate each other?
Water is polar while oils are non-polar. Molecules that are polar will mix with other polar molecules, and non-polar molecules will mix with other non-polar molecules. Polar and non-polar molecules will not mix.
Does polar or non polar dissolve in water?
Polar substances dissolve in water because they have similar polar characteristics that allow them to interact and mix well. Non-polar substances, on the other hand, do not dissolve in water because water is a polar molecule and cannot effectively interact with non-polar molecules.
What is the relation of non-polar and polar in water?
In water, a polar molecule, the non-polar molecules are generally not miscible or soluble. Due to differences in polarity, they tend to separate rather than mix. This can be seen when oil, a non-polar substance, does not readily dissolve in water, a polar substance.
Non polar gases are poorly soluble in water Why?
Because water is polar. Something that is non-polar doesn't dissolve in water because "like dissolves like."
Are kerosene and oil soluble?
No. Kerosene is an organic compound. and water is a non-organic compound. (kerosene : non-polar Water : polar). As water is a polar solvent kerosene is not soluble in it. but kerosene is soluble in ethyl alcohol which is a non-polar solvent.
Which of these compounds ionic charged non-polar and polar would be least likely to dissolve in water?
Ionic compounds would be least likely to dissolve in water as they are held together by strong electrostatic forces that are not easily broken by water molecules. Non-polar compounds are also unlikely to dissolve in water because water is a polar solvent and non-polar compounds are not attracted to water molecules.
Are non polar molecules soluble in water?
No.Water can't dissolve non-polar molecules. Water is a polar molecule. Since polar molecules can only dissolve with polar molecules, and non-polar molecules can only dissolve with non-polar molecules, water and non-polar molecules don't react together. Exception:- Some very small non-polar molecules can dissolve in water, like oxygen (O2)
Why does cyclohexanone dissolve in benzophenone and not in water?
Cyclohexanone and benzophenone are both non-polar. Water is polar. "Like dissolves like" so non-polar substances dissovle other non-polar substances and polar substances dissolve other polar substances.
What kind of substance cannot dissolve in water?
A non-polar substance especially the one that does not react with water... Have you seen a powder not dissolving in water? its possible. take some amount of sulphur and put it in water. it will be floating in water. wont dissolve.
Does tap water come from potable water?
Tap water is potable, or drinking, water. When it is introduced into a boiler or other non-drinking resources, it becomes NON potable
Why do polar molecules dissolve in water while non polar molecules do not?
To put it simply like dissolves like when it comes to polar and non-polar solutes/solvents. Water is polar so it dissolves polar things.
