Question

why are some substances not able to dissolve in water?
The solute and solvent are not able to react together.
The attraction between the solute and solvent is not very strong.
The chemical bonds in the solvent are too strong to be broken.
The attraction between the solute and solvent particles is too strong to mix

Answer 1

I would assume its A, considering water, while able to dissolve many things, can't dissolve everything

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is the first option:  The solute and the solvent cannot react together.

Explanation:

Hi!

Let's solve this!

Substances that cannot dissolve in water are called nonpolar. They are hydrophobic substances.

We can analyze this as solute and solvent cannot react together.

We conclude that the correct answer is the first option: The solute and the solvent cannot react together.
