Generally speaking, organic molecules tend to dissolve in solvents that have similar physical properties. A good rule of thumb is that "like dissolves like". Meaning, polar compounds can dissolve polar compounds and nonpolar compounds can dissolve nonpolar compounds.
To apply this to the current problem, we are told that the brushes are being cleaned with vegetable oil or mineral oil. In this case, the oils are used as solvents. In order for these solvents to be effective, the compounds they are trying to dissolve must be similar in structure and properties to other oils. Therefore, vegetable oil or mineral oil will be most effective in removing oil-based paints, as these will have the similar properties needed to dissolve in the oil solvents.
Answer:
Non Polar
Explanation:
Non Polar molecule because of its linear symmetric shape
Empirical formula is calculated as follows
calculate the moles of each element, that is % composition/ molar mass
molar masses ( Si= 28.09g/mol , Cl= 35.5 g/mol, I=126.9 g/mol)
moles of silicon = 7.962/28.09g/mol= 0.283 moles
moles of chlorine = 20.10 / 35.5g/mol = 0.566 moles
moles of iodine= 71.94 / 126.9 g/mol= 0.567 moles
divide each mole with smallest mole (0.283)
that is silicon = 0.283/0.283= 1 mole
chlorine = 0.566/0.283= 2 mole
Iodine= o.567/0.283= 2 moles
empirical formula is therefore= SiCl2I2
