Answer:

Vegetable oil will dissolve in heptane

Isopropyl alcohol will dissolve in water

Potassium Bromide will dissolve in water

Explanation:

In chemistry, like dissolves like. This implies that polar substances will dissolve in polar solvents and nonpolar substances will dissolve in nonpolar solvents. This is so because, dissolution of a solute in a solvent involves adequate intermolecular interaction between solute and solvent which isn't possible between a polar and a nonpolar substance.

Explain why, at room temperature, CO2 is a gas and CS2 is a liquid. You may use diagrams as part of your explanation.
eduard

Explanation:

A. Hydrogen bonding is present in CS2 but not in CO2.

B. CS2 has greater dipole moment than CO2 and thus the dipole-dipole forces in CS2 are stronger.

C. CS2 partly dissociates to form ions and CO2 does not. Therefore, ion-dipole interactions are present in CS2 but not in CO2.

D. The dispersion forces are greater in CS2 than in CO2.
