Generally speaking 'like dissolves like' so when you thinking if a molecule can dissolve in a particular solvent, you need to decide what type of bonding that solvent can exhibit and what bonding the molecule in question exhibits. So for example water can exhibit hydrogen bonding. This means for something to be able soluble in water, it too needs to be able to exhibit hydrogen bonding. Methane only contains hydrogen and carbon and thus, will not exhibit hydrogen bonding. However, methanol has carbon, hydrogen and oxygen and therefore, can exhibit hydrogen bonding.
As a result, using the 'like dissolve like' approach we can see why methane will be insoluble in water but methanol will be soluble.
Being an ionic inorganic salt, PbNO3 is soluble in water which is similar in structure as methanol (CH3OH) but we must remember that water is inorganic in nature unlike methanol which is a typical organic compound. From our knowledge of organic compounds we may simply predict that lead nitrate is insoluble in methanol.
Yes, methanol is CH3OH and methane is CH4. Methanol is polar (because of the O-H bond) and methane is non-polar (because it is a hydrocarbon.) Water (which is polar) will dissolve other polar things, but not non-polar things.
completely insoluble in water. soluble in 0.1N sodium hydroxide solution.
Methanol has the highest boiling point among methane, chloromethane, and methanol. This is because methanol has stronger intermolecular forces (hydrogen bonding) compared to methane (only dispersion forces) and chloromethane (dipole-dipole forces).
soluble
drotaverine is soluble in methanol, tetra hydro furan, dichloro methane and ammonium acetate buffer (0.01 M, pH=5)
Being an ionic inorganic salt, PbNO3 is soluble in water which is similar in structure as methanol (CH3OH) but we must remember that water is inorganic in nature unlike methanol which is a typical organic compound. From our knowledge of organic compounds we may simply predict that lead nitrate is insoluble in methanol.
The lipid glycerol is soluble in both water and ether. Olive oil is soluble in ether, but not water. A solid lipid is insoluble in water, methanol, and ether.
Potassium chloride is not soluble in xylene.
Yes, Zinc is soluble in Methanol and Glycerol
salt
Yes, methanol is CH3OH and methane is CH4. Methanol is polar (because of the O-H bond) and methane is non-polar (because it is a hydrocarbon.) Water (which is polar) will dissolve other polar things, but not non-polar things.
Yes, potassium nitrate is soluble in methanol. Potassium nitrate is generally soluble in polar solvents like water and methanol.
it is both soluble and insoluble
completely insoluble in water. soluble in 0.1N sodium hydroxide solution.
Yes, gluconic acid is soluble in methanol. Gluconic acid is a water-soluble compound with a high degree of solubility in polar solvents like methanol.
The antonym of soluble is insoluble. Something that is insoluble does not dissolve in a particular solvent.
