My question is this, Water is a polar; CCl4 is a nonpolar solvent. In which solvent is each of the following more likely to be soluble?
A)KCl,ionic
B)I2, non polar
C)sucrose (table sugar), polar
D)gasoline, non polar
I was told that the way you tell if something is a solvent, is it weights more and its the liquid.
so for example
A)10.0g of NaCl and 100.0g H2O
The H2O is the solvent and the NaCl is the solute.
Is that correct? How does this relate to the problem I asked above?
