Could somebody explain the phrase like dissolves like?
This means that substances are more likely to dissolve in other substances with similar chemical properties. It is most often used when discussing polar and nonpolar solvents. For example, oil will not dissolve in water because oil is nonpolar and water is polar. Basically, a polar solvent will generally dissolve polar solutes and sometimes ionic solutes, and a nonpolar solvent will generally dissolve nonpolar solutes.
Are nonpolar molecules soluble in water?
Nonpolar molecules are generally not soluble in water because water is a polar molecule and like dissolves like.
What is the relationship between carbon polarity and the chemical properties of organic compounds?
The polarity of carbon atoms in organic compounds affects their chemical properties. Carbon atoms can form polar or nonpolar bonds with other atoms, which influences the compound's reactivity, solubility, and boiling point. Polar carbon bonds can lead to compounds with different physical and chemical properties compared to nonpolar carbon bonds.
Does oil and water mix?
Oil and water do not mix because they are immiscible, meaning they do not form a homogeneous mixture. Oil is nonpolar, while water is polar, causing them to repel each other and separate into distinct layers.
If the north pole of the bar magnet suspends the first nail by attraction what is the nail's polarity?
When turned on, yes they do. Even after turned off, some of the charge from the electricity involved will have slightly changed the material that is magnetized. The poles will be there, yet seldom very strong.

Is peanut butter polar or nonpolar?
nonpolar. The fat molecules in peanut butter are nonpolar, that is why peanut butter doesn't evenly mix with water, a polar substance.
How do you explain the phrase like dissolves like in terms of polar and nonpolar substances?
Polar substances dissolve other polar substances, and nonpolar substances dissolve other nonpolar substances. A polar substance cannot dissolve a polar substance and a nonpolar substance cannot dissolve a polar substance.
Is HAsCl4 polar or nonpolar?
The shape is trigonal bipyramidal and all the atoms on the outside are the same so the charges cancel eachother. Nonpolar
Is the molecule co polar or nonpolar?
The molecule is nonpolar.
