Grease is nonpolar. It is made up of lengthy hydrocarbon chains attached to glycerol (triacylglycerols). Because of this property, nonpolar solvents, such as tetrachloroethylene, can get grease out of clothes. This solvent acts by dissolving the grease, thereby removing it from clothes without leaving any residue.

Which notations represent hydrogen isotopes?
lisabon 2012 [21]

Isotopes are chemical elements with same atomic number (Z), but different mass number (different number of neutrons).

Hydrogen is an element with atomic number 1. It has three isotopes:

1) protium (₁¹H), with mass number 1 (no neutrons).

2) deuterium (₁²H), with mass number 2 (one neutrons, n° = 2 -1, n° = 1).

3) tritium (₁³H), with mass number 3 (two neutrons, n° = 3 -1, n° = 2).
