A polar solvent is best at dissolving polar solutes. This is because if a potential solute is non-polar, the solvent is more stable when clustering among itself. This is due to hydrogen bonds and dipole-dipole interaction generally being much more strong attractive forces than London dispersion, which is the only attractive force non-polar molecules can exhibit. It's important to understand that polar molecules also exhibit London dispersion, but that the effect of it is normally rendered insignificant by the much more powerful dipole-dipole interaction/hydrogen bonding.
If a non-polar solution is added to a polar solvent, the non-polar solution will form either a separate layer or small bubble-looking clusters (called micelles). One way to force the two solutions to mix is by using a surfactant, which lowers the surface tension of a liquid. It works by attaching to a non-polar molecule with a long, non-polar chain of carbon and hydrogen atoms and attaching a polar molecule with its polar head.
Polar ANYTHING dissolves in water (as long as it's soluable)!
Water is polar! And Polar solvents dissolve polar (or ionic) solutes!
That's why salt dissolves in water and oil doesn't. (Oil is nonpolar.)
This is true the other way as well.
Nonpolar solutes can dissolve in nonpolar solvents.
That's why oil dissolves in benzene (C6H6) and salt doesn't!
A polar solute is expected to be soluble in a non-polar solvent. This is because "like dissolves like" – polar molecules tend to dissolve in polar solvents, and non-polar molecules dissolve in non-polar solvents.
When a non-polar solute is mixed in a non-polar solvent, they will easily dissolve in each other due to their similar polarities. The solute molecules will distribute evenly throughout the solvent, forming a homogeneous solution. No strong interactions such as hydrogen bonding will occur between the solute and solvent molecules.
If a solute does not dissolve in a solvent, it will form a suspension or a precipitate, depending on whether it settles at the bottom of the container or remains suspended. This lack of dissolution can occur due to factors such as the solute-solvent interaction, temperature, and saturation levels.
Yes, nonpolar solutes can dissolve in nonpolar solvents because like dissolves like. This means that substances with similar polarities tend to dissolve in each other.
Sugar does not dissolve in toluene because toluene is a nonpolar solvent, while sugar is a polar solute. Polar solutes typically dissolve in polar solvents, and nonpolar solutes dissolve in nonpolar solvents.

Polar solvents dissolve polar solutes through the formation of hydrogen bonds or dipole-dipole interactions. The partial charges on the solvent molecules interact with the charges on the solute, allowing the solute to be surrounded and dispersed within the solvent.
Because it is an intermediate polar-nonpolar solvent
They will remain separate, or distinct, in forms.It will not dissolve - only polar molecules dissolve in polar solvents.Non-Polar Solutes and Solvents are a different matter.
Yes, nonpolar solutes can dissolve in nonpolar solvents because like dissolves like. This means that substances with similar polarities tend to dissolve in each other.
Solubility is how much of a substance will dissolve in a given solvent. The rule for solubility is "like dissolves like". So polar substances, like ionic compounds, will dissolve in polar solvents, like water. Non-polar substances, like organics, will dissolve in more non-polar organic solvents, like acetone, ethanol, benzene, etc.
Terpenoids are large hydrocarbons. They are generally non polar and hydrophobic. Hexane is a non polar solvent. When solutes and solvents have compatible polarities ,the solute dissolves in the solvent. As terpenoids and hexane are non polar , terpenoids would dissolve in hexane.
no
Sugar does not dissolve in toluene because toluene is a nonpolar solvent, while sugar is a polar solute. Polar solutes typically dissolve in polar solvents, and nonpolar solutes dissolve in nonpolar solvents.
