Why don't polar molecules and nonpolar molecules mix?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Bad White [126]4 years ago
3 0

Solution:

By the following ways the polar molecule doesn’t mix with non-polar molecule  

Polar molecules have a portion of their molecule which, relative to the rest of the molecule, is more negative.  

Water, for example, has a bent, or V-shape, due to the 2 lone electron pairs on oxygen. This makes the oxygen end more negative than the hydrogen end. This negative area allows for hydrogen bonding between that molecule and other molecules which are also polar.  

Non-polar molecules don't have a portion of the molecule which is more negative than the rest. An example of this is a hydrocarbon, like butane. Because there is no relatively negative region to the molecule, it cannot partake in hydrogen bonding and therefore does not mix with polar molecules.  

Thus we can conclude that Polar mixes with polar; non-polar mixes with non-polar.

How many grams of glucose are needed to prepare 400. g of a 2.00% (m/m) glucose solution g?
Dominik [7]
The grams   of glucose  are  needed  to  prepare  400g  of  a 2.00%(m/m)  glucose  solution  g  is  calculated  as  below

=% m/m =mass  of the solute/mass  of  the  solution  x100

let mass of   solute  be represented  by  y
mass  of solution = 400 g
 % (m/m) = 2% = 2/100

 grams  of  glucose  is  therefore =2/100 =  y/400
by cross  multiplication

100y = 800
divide   both side  by  100

y= 8.0 grams
