Answer:

Oil is a hydrophobic substance, therefore cannot interact with water. Sugar is hydrophilic, water loving, and has the ability to dissolve in water.

Answer:

the water and alcohol interact, which means the water doesn't even dissolve the sugar or color as well as it normally would. Oil molecules are not polar so they cannot dissolve either the coloring or the sugar.

Answer: The molecular formula will be $C_3H_9$

Explanation:

Molecular formula is the chemical formula which depicts the actual number of atoms of each element present in the compound.

Empirical formula is the simplest chemical formula which depicts the whole number of atoms of each element present in the compound.

The empirical formula is $CH_3$

The empirical weight of $CH_3$ = 1(12)+3(1)= 15g.

The molecular weight = 45.0 g/mole

Now we have to calculate the molecular formula:

$n=\frac{\text{Molecular weight }}{\text{Equivalent weight}}=\frac{45}{15}=3$

The molecular formula will be= $3\times CH_3=C_3H_9$

Thus molecular formula will be $C_3H_9$
