Question

Polar solvents dissolve _____ solutes and non-polar solvents _____ solutes.
pt 1 :
A) Polar
B) Non-polar
pt 2 :
A) Polar
B) Non-polar

Answer 1

first part is polar, second part is non-polar. Use the saying "like dissolves like". Substances that are alike in polarity are more likely to dissolve one another. 

Answer 2

Answer : Polar solvents dissolve polar solutes and non-polar solvents dissolve non-polar solutes.

Explanation :

According to the concept of “Like dissolves like”, the polar solvents dissolve polar solutes, and non-polar solvents dissolve non-polar solutes.

For example : In the ionic compounds, like sodium chloride are soluble in the water. And as we know that the water molecules are polar in nature. So, they interact with the sodium and chloride ions.

Hence, the polar solvents dissolve polar solutes and non-polar solvents dissolve non-polar solutes.
