explain how polar molecules can dissolve other polar molecules

Sagot :

Answer:

Explanation:

In a polar solvent, the molecules of solvent are attracted to each other by the partial charges on the ends of the molecules. When a polar solute is added, the positive polar ends of the solute molecules attract the negative polar ends of the solvent molecules and vice versa.

Hope this helps :)

So the partially negative part of one polar molecule (like water) will interact with the partially positive part of another molecule (like your mystery substance). This allows polar substances to dissolve each other
