  2. Sulfuric acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfuric_acid

    Anhydrous H 2 SO 4 is a very polar liquid, having a dielectric constant of around 100. It has a high electrical conductivity, a consequence of autoprotolysis, i.e. self-protonation: [15] 2 H 2 SO 4 ⇌ H 3 SO + 4 + HSO − 4. The equilibrium constant for autoprotolysis (25 °C) is: [15] [H 3 SO 4] + [HSO 4] − = 2.7 × 10 −4

  3. Chemical polarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_polarity

    When comparing a polar and nonpolar molecule with similar molar masses, the polar molecule in general has a higher boiling point, because the dipole–dipole interaction between polar molecules results in stronger intermolecular attractions. One common form of polar interaction is the hydrogen bond, which is also

  4. Salt (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_(chemistry)

    The solubility of salts is highest in polar solvents (such as water) or ionic liquids, but tends to be low in nonpolar solvents (such as petrol/gasoline). [72] This contrast is principally because the resulting ion–dipole interactions are significantly stronger than ion-induced dipole interactions, so the heat of solution is higher. When the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thin-layer_chromatography

    As such, all compounds on the TLC plate move higher up the plate in polar solvent mixtures. [citation needed] "Strong" solvents move compounds higher up the plate, whereas "weak" solvents move them less. [11] If the stationary phase is non-polar, like C18-functionalized silica plates, it is called reverse-phase TLC. In this case, non-polar ...

  7. Diethyl ether - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diethyl_ether

    Diethyl ether is a popular non-polar solvent in liquid-liquid extraction. As an extractant, it is immiscible with and less dense than water. Although immiscible, it has significant solubility in water (6.05 g/(100 ml) at 25 °C [ 2 ] ) and dissolves 1.5 g/(100 g) (1.0 g/(100 ml)) water at 25 °C.

  8. Hydrophobe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrophobe

    Hydrophobic molecules tend to be nonpolar and, thus, prefer other neutral molecules and nonpolar solvents. Because water molecules are polar, hydrophobes do not dissolve well among them. Hydrophobic molecules in water often cluster together, forming micelles. Water on hydrophobic surfaces will exhibit a high contact angle.

  9. Thiol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thiol

    Thiol with a blue highlighted sulfhydryl group.. In organic chemistry, a thiol (/ ˈ θ aɪ ɒ l /; [1] from Ancient Greek θεῖον (theion) 'sulfur' [2]), or thiol derivative, is any organosulfur compound of the form R−SH, where R represents an alkyl or other organic substituent.
