CH3MgBr, or methylmagnesium bromide, is classified as a Grignard reagent and is considered a polar compound. The presence of the magnesium atom bonded to the carbon (which has a partial negative charge) and the bromine atom (which has a partial positive charge) creates a polar bond. Additionally, the compound exhibits ionic character due to the electropositive magnesium and electronegative bromine, but it is not a salt in the traditional sense, as it does not consist of a cation and an anion in a lattice structure.

Is table salt polar non polar or ionic?

Salt is polar. It dissolves in water (also polar). Like dissolves like.


How do you identify which is polar and non polar solvent?

Salt + Vegetable oil . The salt is the ionic solid and the vegetable oil is the nonpolar liquid


Why isn't sodium chloride soluble in isopropanol?

Sodium chloride is ionic, and therefore very polar. Isopropanol is a hydrocarbon, and is therefore non-polar. Like dissolves like, and polar and non-polar are opposites, so the salt doesn't dissolve. Water, however, will easily dissolve salt, because, like salt, water is polar.


Why doesn't salt and oil mix?

salt is an ionic compound and gets dissolve in polar solvent as water,oils are non polar organic liquids.


Why does salt dissolve in water but not cooking oil?

Salt (sodium chloride) is an ionic compound; water is a polar solvent, oils have non-polar molecules.


Why does water dissolve more salt than ethanol?

Water is polar, and so is salt (because it's ionic and therefore polar by definition.) So salt dissolves easily in water, because in chemistry, "like dissolves like." Ethanol is non-polar (because it's a hydrocarbon, and they're all non-polar.) So water and ethanol won't dissolve in each other. Nor will ethanol dissolve salt.


Why does propanone have no affect on salt?

Propanone (acetone) is a non-polar solvent, while salts are ionic compounds that dissolve in polar solvents. Since propanone cannot effectively interact with the charged ions in salt due to its lack of polarity, it does not have a significant effect on dissolving salts.


Does salt dissolve in vegetable oil?

Salt cannot dissolve in oil. This is because salt is a non-polar substance, because it's bonds are non-polar (this is not to say though that polar bonds always means its a polar substance, but that's another issue). Oil is a polar substance (meaning one end of its molecule is has a slight negative charge, the other a slightly positive charge. It is known that LIKE dissolves LIKE. (e.g. Polar dissovles Polar). There are VERY few exceptions to this.


Why is salt dissolved in water and not in paint thinner?

Because water is polar (as is salt) whereas paint-thinner is not polar. Consider the rule "like dissolves like". non-polar covalent solvents (paint thinner) will not dissolve polar solutes (salt)


Will salt and sugar dissolve in petrol?

Unlike salt and sugar, petrol is a nonpolar substance, meaning that the electrons in its molecules are evenly distributed, rather than concentrated in some areas to make the molecule negatively charged on one side and positively charged on the other, as is the case with polar substances. Polar substances, as well as ionic substances such as salt, tend to dissolve more effectively in other polar substances, such as water, while nonpolar substances tend to dissolve well in nonpolar substances, such as oil. So while salt and sugar dissolve well in water, and oil might dissolve well in petrol, salt and sugar will not dissolve to any great degree in petrol.


Can kerosine dissolved?

Kerosene is a non polar solvent (or non ionic solvent) and cannot dissolve an ionic compound such as salt.


Are ether and salt polar?

Petroleum and ether are NOT polar. Salt is polar.
