Sodium chloride is soluble in water because water is a polar solvent that can interact with the charged ions in sodium chloride through ion-dipole interactions. Gasoline, on the other hand, is a nonpolar solvent that cannot disrupt the ionic bonds in sodium chloride, so it is not soluble in gasoline.

Why is sodium chloride very soluble in water but not very soluble in gasoline?

Sodium chloride (table salt) is very soluble in water because it can interact with the polar water molecules through ion-dipole interactions. Gasoline, on the other hand, is nonpolar, so it cannot dissolve ionic compounds like sodium chloride effectively due to a lack of compatible intermolecular forces.
