What is it called when a compound cannot be solvated?

When a compound cannot be solvated, it is referred to as insoluble. This means the compound does not dissolve in a particular solvent under specified conditions.


How easily a substance can dissolve into a liquid?

Its solubility. I.e. its ability to be solvated by a solvent


What is a solute particle that is surrounded by solvent molecules is said to be?

The solute particle is said to be dissolved in the solvent.


Why amonia solution of alkali metals are blue in clour?

The blue color of alkali metal solutions is due to the formation of solvated electrons. When alkali metals dissolve in ammonia, they lose an electron to form free electrons that react with the solvent (ammonia) to create a blue color. This phenomenon is known as the formation of solvated electrons and is responsible for the blue color of the solution.


How would you write carbonated water in scientific terms?

Carbonated water is a solution of carbonic acid. This exists as an equilibrium mixture of H2CO3 molecules, solvated hydrogen ions and solvated carbonate and hydrogencarbonate ions, so a simple formula is not possible. H2CO3(aq) is probably the best approximation.


What is a lyophillic solution?

A lyophillic solution is a type of colloidal solution where the dispersed particles are strongly solvated; in this case the solution is more stable.

What type of bond holds the electrolytes in the body together?

Electrolytes in the body are generally found in solution. Electrolytes are ions (such as sodium, potassium, calcium, and chloride). These ions are solvated by water molecules and the solvated ions are free to move within the solvent. In this sense they are not held together. Some ions are present in solid structures in the body and these are held in place by ionic bonds. Ionic bonds are electrostatic in nature and are caused by the electrostatic attraction between ions of opposite charge.


Is cyclohexanol soluble in Dilute HCL?

No, cyclohexanol is not soluble in dilute hydrochloric acid because it is a neutral compound and does not ionize in water to form an ionic species that could be solvated by the chloride ions in HCl.


Are sugar particles are chemically joined to water particles in sugar water?

Not quite in the way you may think. Sugar particles are solvated within water, meaning that water molecules will form solvated shells around sucrose (common table sugar) and result in the sucrose molecules becoming dispersed within the water. How the water interacts with the sucrose molecule is by hydrogen bonding with the sugar's polar groups, which is a strong molecular interaction, however is not quite a covalent chemical bond.


When the pH value of a solution is changed from 2 to 1 the concentration of hydronium?

The concentration of hydronium ions would increase tenfold because the pH scale is a logarithmic scale. Moving from pH 2 to pH 1 signifies a difference of 1 unit on the scale, which corresponds to a tenfold change in concentration of hydronium ions.


Can milk neutralize suger in the mouth?

False. Milk is nearly all water. Sugar is a covalent molecular compound which can be solvated by water. The mouth and water do not and cannot neutralize sugar. Sugars are not neutralized, but acids and bases can be.
