It is not soluble.
No, salt does not dissolve in petroleum ether because salt is a polar compound and petroleum ether is a nonpolar solvent. As a result, there is no attraction between salt and petroleum ether molecules, making it insoluble.
I believe so, I did an experiment where I dissolved a lot of NaCl in diethyl ether, so it appears to be soluable. Not sure why tho
Yes, petroleum ether is a nonpolar solvent and can dissolve hydrophobic substances like vegetable oil, which is also nonpolar. However, it is important to handle petroleum ether carefully due to its flammability and toxicity.
Petroleum ether is a nonpolar solvent, while vegetable oil is a nonpolar substance. Since like dissolves like, petroleum ether should be able to dissolve in vegetable oil to some extent.
Yes, fats are generally soluble in organic solvents like petroleum ether due to their non-polar nature. Petroleum ether is a nonpolar solvent and can dissolve nonpolar compounds like fats.
Naphthalene is more soluble in petroleum ether than in water because naphthalene is nonpolar and petroleum ether is also nonpolar. Like dissolves like, so nonpolar solvents like petroleum ether are better able to dissolve nonpolar solutes like naphthalene. Water is a polar solvent and does not interact well with nonpolar solutes like naphthalene, resulting in low solubility.
Petroleum and ether are NOT polar. Salt is polar.
Chloroform is miscible with petroleum ether, meaning they can mix in all proportions to form a homogenous solution. This is because both chloroform and petroleum ether are non-polar solvents.
Tert-butyl methyl ether more polar than petroleum ethere cause petroleum ether isn't an ether- it's composed of hydrocarbons, which are nonpolar. The real ether that is in tBME includes oxygen, which is electronegative and creates more polarity in the molecule.
Petroleum and ether are NOT polar. Salt is polar.
Petroleum ether and hexane are not the same, although they are both hydrocarbon solvents. Hexane is a specific compound composed of six carbon atoms in a straight chain, while petroleum ether is a mixture of various hydrocarbons obtained from petroleum refining. Hexane has a higher purity and is more commonly used in laboratory settings.
petrolium ether is a mixture of pentane and hexane so has no molar mass
