NaCl is an ionic compound, and these terms are generally reserved for covalent compounds.

But by definition, all ionic compounds are polar.

No it is not soluble in toluene because toluene is nonpolar and nacl is polar


NaCl polar or non polar?

NaCl is an ionic compound, certainly not nonpolar.


How is water equipped to break the relatively powerful ionic bonds making up crystals like sodium chloride?

Because of the phrase "like dissolves like". Both NaCl and water are made up of polar bonds and have a polar shape, so like dissolves like. If NaCl was nonpolar in its shape, the polar water would not be able to dissolve the nonpolar NaCl.


Will NaCL and Hexane form a solution?

No, sodium chloride (NaCl) and hexane do not form a solution because they are immiscible. NaCl is a polar compound that dissolves in water, while hexane is a nonpolar solvent that does not interact with NaCl.


Why is NaCl soluble in water but iodine not?

Sodium chloride and water are polar compounds. Iodine is soluble in nonpolar organic solvents.

Is Na-Cl polar or nonpolar or ionic?

Sodium chloride (NaCl), is an ionic compound. It is made of 2 ions which are attracted to each other.


Did NaCl soluble in hexane?

No, NaCl (sodium chloride) is not soluble in hexane. Hexane is a nonpolar solvent, while NaCl is an ionic compound that dissolves in polar solvents like water.


Why Nacl is soluble in benzene?

Sodium chloride (NaCl) is not soluble in benzene because benzene is a nonpolar solvent and NaCl is an ionic compound, which is more soluble in polar solvents like water. Ionic compounds like NaCl dissociate into ions in polar solvents due to the attraction between the polar water molecules and the charged ions. Benzene lacks the polarity needed to disrupt the ionic bonds in NaCl, so they do not dissolve in it.
