Yes, oil based paints and nail polish are considered nonpolar solutes because they do not dissolve readily in water, which is a polar solvent. Polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents, while nonpolar solutes dissolve in nonpolar solvents.
Soap is amphipathic, meaning it has both polar and non-polar properties. The polar end of the soap molecule interacts with water (hydrophilic), while the non-polar end interacts with oil and grease (hydrophobic), allowing soap to help remove dirt and oils from surfaces.
Dish detergent is typically polar due to the presence of hydrophilic (water-attracting) functional groups such as sulfonate or sulfate. These polar groups enable the detergent to dissolve in water and interact with both water and oils/grease to facilitate cleaning.
Because it is an intermediate polar-nonpolar solvent
Nonpolar
Non-polar- both atoms have the same electronegativity as they are both chlorine!
Yes, oil based paints and nail polish are considered nonpolar solutes because they do not dissolve readily in water, which is a polar solvent. Polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents, while nonpolar solutes dissolve in nonpolar solvents.
I2 is non-polar because it has a symmetrical linear shape, with the same atoms on both ends creating a balanced distribution of charge.
Soap is amphipathic, meaning it has both polar and non-polar properties. The polar end of the soap molecule interacts with water (hydrophilic), while the non-polar end interacts with oil and grease (hydrophobic), allowing soap to help remove dirt and oils from surfaces.
Soap contains both polar and non-polar ends. The polar end attracts water molecules, while the non-polar end attracts oil and dirt. This dual nature allows soap to dissolve both water-soluble and oil-soluble substances, making it effective for cleaning.
Cyclohexanone and benzophenone are both non-polar molecules, which allows them to mix well together. Water, on the other hand, is a polar molecule that does not mix well with non-polar substances. This leads to poor solubility of cyclohexanone in water.
Dish detergent is typically polar due to the presence of hydrophilic (water-attracting) functional groups such as sulfonate or sulfate. These polar groups enable the detergent to dissolve in water and interact with both water and oils/grease to facilitate cleaning.
Potassium bromide is polar because it contains both potassium and bromine, which have different electronegativities. This creates uneven distribution of charge within the molecule, making it polar.
Yes, ethers are versatile solvents that can dissolve both polar and non-polar compounds. This dual solubility arises from the ether molecule's oxygen atom, which can form hydrogen bonds with polar compounds while the hydrocarbon chain can interact with non-polar compounds through dispersion forces.

non-polar
It is non polar.
