It is the other way around. The solvent dissolves the solute. A polar solvent, like water, dissolves other polar substances and many ionic substances. A nonpolar solvent dissolves other nonpolar substances. Basically, like dissolves like.
=a polar solvent dissolves a polar solute, and nonpolar solvents dissolve nonpolar solutes. likes dissolve likes=
Turpentine is a good solvent for paints.
The disassociation of any solute in any solvent depends on the nature of both the solute and the solvent. Ionic compounds such as common salt completely dissociates in the water as sodium and chloride ions. Polar solutes are soluble in polar solvents whereas non-polar solutes are soluble in non-polar solvents.
Heat up the solvent. Solubility of most solid solutes increases with temperatue.
well i know one is sharpie permanent marker please add more to the list :)
Generally polar solvents dissolve polar solutes and vice versa.
The term that summarizes the dissolving process of polar or nonpolar solvents and solutes is "like dissolves like." This means that polar solvents tend to dissolve polar solutes, while nonpolar solvents dissolve nonpolar solutes due to their similar intermolecular forces.
Yes, oil based paints and nail polish are considered nonpolar solutes because they do not dissolve readily in water, which is a polar solvent. Polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents, while nonpolar solutes dissolve in nonpolar solvents.
Solutions are mixtures of solutes (substances being dissolved) in solvents (substances doing the dissolving). Solutes dissolve in solvents to form a homogeneous mixture where solutes are uniformly distributed in the solvent. The amount of solute that can dissolve in a solvent is determined by factors like temperature and pressure.
Substances that are polar or ionic in nature will dissolve in polar solvents due to similar intermolecular forces. Some examples include salts, sugars, alcohols, and organic acids. Nonpolar substances, such as oils and fats, will not dissolve in polar solvents.
Yes, solutes dissolve into solvents to form a homogenous mixture. The solute particles disperse and intermingle with the solvent particles at a molecular level. This process occurs due to the interactions between the solute and solvent molecules.
Nonpolar solvents are typically unable to dissolve polar or ionic solutes, as their molecular structure lacks the necessary polarity or charge to interact with these solutes. However, nonpolar solvents can dissolve nonpolar solutes, such as hydrocarbons or organic compounds with long chains of carbon and hydrogen atoms.
This means that substances are more likely to dissolve in other substances with similar chemical properties. It is most often used when discussing polar and nonpolar solvents. For example, oil will not dissolve in water because oil is nonpolar and water is polar. Basically, a polar solvent will generally dissolve polar solutes and sometimes ionic solutes, and a nonpolar solvent will generally dissolve nonpolar solutes.

It gives you a clue to which solutes are soluble in which solvents.
The principle of "like dissolves like" states that substances with similar polarity and intermolecular forces are more likely to dissolve in each other. For example, polar solutes dissolve better in polar solvents, while nonpolar solutes dissolve better in nonpolar solvents. This is because molecules with similar interactions can more easily mix at a molecular level, increasing solubility.
Solubility is the ability of a substance (solute) to dissolve in a solvent to form a homogeneous mixture (solution). It depends on factors such as temperature, pressure, and the nature of the solute and solvent. In general, like dissolves like - polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents, and nonpolar solutes dissolve in nonpolar solvents.
