Do polar substances dissolve in non-polar liquids?
No, polar substances do not dissolve well in non-polar liquids because they have different intermolecular forces. Polar substances are attracted to other polar substances due to their opposite charges, while non-polar substances are attracted to each other due to London dispersion forces.
Most substances are?
Most substances are either solids, liquids, or gases at room temperature, depending on their molecular structure and intermolecular forces. The state of a substance can change with temperature and pressure.
Why do some liquids mix and some do not?
Liquids mix when the intermolecular forces between molecules of different liquids are similar and can overcome any repulsive forces. Liquids that do not mix typically have different intermolecular forces, leading to limited interactions between molecules and preventing a homogeneous mixture.
Why can't liquids change volume but gasses can?
The intermolecular strength is higher in liquids than in gases.
Which matter has the maximum intermolecular force?
Solid matter typically has the maximum intermolecular forces compared to liquids and gases. This is because the particles in a solid are closely packed together, allowing for stronger attractions between them such as van der Waals forces, hydrogen bonding, and dipole-dipole interactions.
Why are liquids and gas's not stable?
because of intermolecular interactions and also possible of polarizing effect
Are intermolecular forces are responsible for the function of DNA- the taste sensations- the existence of liquids and solids- the shape of protein molecules- or all of the above?
Intermolecular forces are responsible for the function of DNA, the taste sensations, the existence of liquids and solids, and the shape of protein molecules. These forces play a crucial role in the structure, stability, and interactions of molecules in biological systems and in the physical properties of substances in different states of matter.

Which intermolecular force is present is present in solids and liquids that are composed of non polar molecules?
London dispersion forces (instananeous dipole - induced dipole interactions)
Can you please-Compare the melting points of substances that are gases at room temperature with solids and liquids?
Substances that are gases at room temperature typically have lower melting points than solids and liquids because their intermolecular forces are weaker. Gases have molecules that are further apart, making it easier to overcome these weak forces to change their state. Solids and liquids have stronger intermolecular forces that require more energy to break, resulting in higher melting points.
Do polar or non polar liquids have a greater capillary action?
Polar liquids have a greater capillary action than nonpolar liquids because polar liquids have molecules that exhibit stronger intermolecular forces, such as hydrogen bonding, which allow them to "climb" up a surface more easily. Nonpolar liquids have weaker intermolecular forces, reducing their capillary action.
Why are some substances gases and others liquids at room temperature?
At room temperature, substances can exist in different states (solid, liquid, gas) based on the strength of intermolecular forces between their molecules. Gases have weak intermolecular forces and high kinetic energy, allowing them to move freely. Liquids have stronger intermolecular forces but still enough kinetic energy to flow. The state of a substance at room temperature depends on the balance between these forces and kinetic energy.
What kind of forces act between molecule?
Intermolecular forces
Why can't liquids change volume but gasses can?
The intermolecular strength is higher in liquids than in gases.
Are all liquids can be change to solid?
Not all liquids can be changed into a solid. Only liquids that have the ability to freeze - meaning they have a freezing point above absolute zero - can be converted into a solid. Liquids like water can be turned into ice, but substances like mercury, which remains liquid at extremely low temperatures, cannot be solidified under normal conditions.
