Does water readily dissolve most polar compounds?

Yes, water readily dissolves most polar compounds because water is a polar molecule itself, having a partial positive charge on the hydrogen atoms and a partial negative charge on the oxygen atom. This polarity allows water to form hydrogen bonds with other polar molecules, facilitating their dissolution in water.


Organic compounds that are poorly soluble in water behave that way because they are 1 moderately polar 2 covalently bonded 3 generally nonpolar 4 highly polar 5 ionically bonded?

generally nonpolar. Organic compounds that are poorly soluble in water are usually nonpolar or have very weak polarity, which makes it difficult for them to form interactions with water molecules. This lack of polarity hinders the ability of the organic compound to dissolve in the polar water molecules.


Will diesel dissolve sugar?

Not, but water will. If you need something that mixes with common petroleum products mix 1 part ajax dish soap with 5 parts water, 10 parts isopropanol. Use sparingly.


Will an m and m dissolve faster in hotter water?

yes, an m&m will dissolve faster in hot water, because the heat from the water will speed up the molecules in the m&m, and cause it to dissolve faster than it would under cold circumstances.


Marie and Calvin tried dissolved 45 grams of NO3 in 100 grams of water at 25oC Five grams of solute settled out so they heated the water to 55oC and they were able to dissolve the extra 5 grams of so?

Increasing the temperature of the solution allowed more of the solute (NO3) to dissolve due to an increase in solubility. As temperature increases, the kinetic energy of the solvent molecules also increases, making it easier for the solute molecules to break apart and dissolve. At 55°C, the solubility of the compound was high enough to dissolve the extra 5 grams that initially settled out at 25°C.


What is the general rule regarding solubility of polar and non-polar substances?

"Like dissolves like" This is simply stating that a solute will dissolve best in a solvent that has a similar polarity to itself. For example, a very polar (hydrophilic) solute such as NaCl is very soluble in highly polar water and and practically insoluble in non-polar solvents such as benzene. However, a non-polar (lipophilic) solute such as carbon dioxide is insoluble in water and highly soluble in non-polar benzene. For a non-polar solute such as carbon dioxide to become more soluble in water, the pressure of the system would have to be increased. This is why most sodas are under 5 atmospheres of pressure.


How many molecules of water make up 5 moles?

for each mole of anything there is 6.022x10^23 molecules. Therefore for 5 moles of water there is 5 x 6.022x10^23 = 3.011x10^24 molecules of water


How long does it take a teaspoon of sugar to dissolve in water?

It takes about 5 seconds.


how long does it take to dissolve 5 grams of salt in 50ml water?

100ml


How long does it take salt to dissolve in cold water-?

Salt dissolve quicker in hot water because it practicaly melts the salt there fore making it quicker.


How many more atoms in all do 5 molecules of hydrogen peroxide have than 5 molecules of water?

H2O2 has four nuclei (atoms) in one molecule. Therefore, it has 20 'atoms' in 5 molecules. H2O has three nuclei in one molecule. Therefore, there are 15 nuclei in 5 molecules of water. 20-15 = 5 Ans: 5!


Is DNA a polar or nonpolar molecule?

DNA is a polar molecule because it has a negatively (-) charged phosphate group attached to the 5' end of the molecule and a negatively charge hydroxl group (OH) attached to the 3' prime end of the molecule.Thus, it is a POLAR molecule which allows it to interact in an aqueous environment.
