Due to hydrogen bonding some covalent compounds like carbohydrates dissolves in water. R. Five water molecules are bonded to CuSO4 through hydrogen bonds.

When covalent compounds dissolve in water they break apart into molecules, but not individual atoms. Water is a polar solvent, but covalent compounds are usually nonpolar. Oil is a non-polar covalent compound, which is why it doesn’t dissolve in water.

Answer. 1. Most of the ionic compounds are soluble in water because they dissociate into ions in water and the ions get surrounded by water molecules. Covalent compounds lack this property od dissociation and hence can’t dissolve in water.

Covalent compounds are only soluble in non-polar solvents. But water is a polar solvent i.e. it has charge separation. But most of the organic solvents are non-polar. Hence covlent compounds are soluble in organic solvents.

Carbonates, hydroxides, sulfates, phosphates, and heavy metal salts are often insoluble.

Positive is attracted to negative, making a cohesive structure. When polar compounds or ions are added to water, they break up into smaller components, or dissolve, to become part of the solution. The water’s partial charges attract different parts of the compound, making them soluble in water.

Sugar, sodium chloride, and hydrophilic proteins are all substances that dissolve in water. Oils, fats, and certain organic solvents do not dissolve in water because they are hydrophobic.

We can see from the table that silver chloride is an insoluble salt. It can be made by reacting a soluble silver salt with a soluble chloride salt….Making insoluble salts.

Salt (sodium chloride) is made from positive sodium ions bonded to negative chloride ions. Water can dissolve salt because the positive part of water molecules attracts the negative chloride ions and the negative part of water molecules attracts the positive sodium ions.

Strong sodium ions bound to negative chloride ions are made of salt (sodium chloride). Water can dissolve salt because the negative chloride ions are attracted by the positive portion of water molecules and the positive sodium ions are attracted by the negative portion of water molecules.

We will consider solubility of material in water as solvent. The solubility of the majority of solid substances increases as the temperature increases. Notice how the temperature dependence of NaCl is fairly flat, meaning that an increase in temperature has relatively little effect on the solubility of NaCl.

Sugar is such a substance. When sugar is dissolved in water, the solution does not conduct electricity, because there are no ions in the solution. Some substances that are made of molecules form solutions that do conduct electricity.
