Kerosene is a mixture of different hydrocarbon molecules, which are non-polar: they share their electrons equally throughout the molecule, and all electrons in the molecule are involved in bonding. Salt and sugar are polar (attractive, like a magnet) substances. In the case of table salt, it is an ionic compound (NaCl), and each of these atoms has an electric charge from too many or too few electrons. Sugar has oxygen atoms in its molecular structure, and these atoms have four electrons that are not involved in bonding. Although the molecule is overall neutral, these electrons serve as a kind of polar source.
Polar liquids will dissolve polar solids, and non-polar liquids will dissolve non-polar solids. However, non-polar substances will not dissolve polar substances, and vice versa. It's like oil and water: the non-polar oil will not mix with the polar water. Another good way to think about it is magnets. The magnet, with a positive pole and a negative pole, will only cling to certain things, like your fridge. The magnet and fridge serve as polar things, whereas a piece of glass, which a magnet will not cling to, serves as a non-polar thing.
What else can I help you with?
Does salt dissolve in water faster than sugar?
yes.The chemical structure of salt(NaCl) is simpler than that of the sugar (C6H12O6)
How can you separate salt and sugar?
Organic SolventsBenzene and other solvents will dissolve sugar, but not salt. Salt is slightly soluble in ethanol, but this method can be used for experiments. Add the mixture to ethanol and strain out the salt with filter paper. Evaporating the ethanol will leave the sugar behind.Water Solution First in a large glass of cold water and mix the "Salt+Sugar" you have there.Then wait until some solid particles form on the bottom of the glass.Carefully take the water out of the glass.The solid particles are SUGARThen the water is SALT+WATERTake the "Salt+Water" and boil it until there is no more water.Then you will end with just SALT (hot salt...)In theory, if a water solution is cooled, sugar crystals should precipitate before the salt, but this is difficult to control experimentally.
Does sugar dissolve faster than salt when all other variables are the same?
Sugar dissolves in a liquid faster than salt does. The reason is that sugar is less dense as a solute than salt is, leading to it dissolving in the solvent faster as it would fit into the 'empty gaps' that the solvent has at a much faster rate, which is how substances dissolve.
Why does salt dissolve faster in cold water than sugar dissolves in cold water?
Sugar dissolves in water faster than salt because of the structure and bonding of its atoms. The atoms of Sugar are bound very loosely whereas the atoms of salt are tightly bonded as compared to the sugar atoms. That is why sugar dissolves faster than salt.
Does salt or sugar dissolve faster in cold or hot water?
Sugar sinks at the same rate in warm or cold water. Sugar dissolves faster in warm water.
Which will dissolve faster in liquids salt or sugar?
Sugar should dissolve faster in a liquid.
What is the variable of sugar and salt?
The variable for both sugar and salt is temperature: more sugar or salt will dissolve in water at a higher temperature. The amount of water is also a factor, since more water will be able to dissolve more sugar or salt.
Does kerosene dissolve in oil?
No, coconut oil do not dissolve in kerosene
What two substances dissolve in water?
Salt and Sugar dissolve in water.
Can water dissolve more sugar or salt?
More sugar can dissolve in water than salt.
What dissolve faster in hot and cold water Salt or sugar?
Sugar dissolves faster than salt in water. Salt has stronger bonds than sugar. That what makes sugar dissolve faster (because it has weaker bonds and structure than salt)
Things that dissolve in water?
salt sugar
Substances that can dissolve in water?
sugar, salt
How do you dissolve water and sugar?
by heating the water slowly and by stirring using a spoon, you can dissolve salt and sugar.
Does salt dissolve quicker than sugar?
No, sugar has a melting point of 161 degrees Celsius and salt has a melting point of 801 degrees Celsius
How do you separate a mixture of salt and sugar?
sugar can dissolve in alcohol but salt cant dissolve in alcohol.we add the mixture in alcohol and filtrater it and get sugar alcohol solution one side and salt left other side
Which mixture will not dissolve in water pepper salt sugar?
Pepper will not dissolve in water.
