  2. Dichlorine monoxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dichlorine_monoxide

    The structure of dichlorine monoxide is similar to that of water and hypochlorous acid, with the molecule adopting a bent molecular geometry (due to the lone pairs on the oxygen atom) and resulting in C 2V molecular symmetry.

  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. Organochlorine chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organochlorine_chemistry

    These solvents tend to be relatively non-polar; they are therefore immiscible with water and effective in cleaning applications such as degreasing and dry cleaning for their ability to dissolve oils and grease. They are mostly nonflammable or have very low flammability.

  5. Solvent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvent

    The following table shows that the intuitions from "non-polar", "polar aprotic" and "polar protic" are put numerically – the "polar" molecules have higher levels of δP and the protic solvents have higher levels of δH. Because numerical values are used, comparisons can be made rationally by comparing numbers.

  6. Solvent dye - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvent_dye

    Solvent dyes are used to color organic solvents, hydrocarbon fuels, waxes, lubricants, plastics, and other hydrocarbon-based nonpolar materials. Fuel dyes are one use of solvent dyes. Their molecules are typically nonpolar or little polar, and they do not undergo ionization. They are insoluble in water.

  7. Polarizability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarizability

    Polarizability usually refers to the tendency of matter, when subjected to an electric field, to acquire an electric dipole moment in proportion to that applied field. It is a property of particles with an electric charge.

  8. Dichloromethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dichloromethane

    DCM's volatility and ability to dissolve a wide range of organic compounds makes it a useful solvent for many chemical processes commonly in paint removers. [12] In the food industry, it is used to decaffeinate coffee and tea as well as to prepare extracts of hops and other flavourings.

  9. Partition coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_coefficient

    [10]: 275ff When one of the solvents is water and the other is a non-polar solvent, then the log P value is a measure of lipophilicity or hydrophobicity. [ 10 ] : 275ff [ 11 ] : 6 The defined precedent is for the lipophilic and hydrophilic phase types to always be in the numerator and denominator respectively; for example, in a biphasic system ...
