  2. 1,2-Dichloroethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,2-dichloroethylene

    1,2-Dichloroethylene or 1,2-DCE is the name for a pair of organochlorine compounds with the molecular formula C 2 H 2 Cl 2.The two compounds are isomers, each being colorless liquids with a sweet odor.

  3. 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. [12] In the food industry, it is used to decaffeinate coffee and tea as well as to prepare extracts of hops and other flavourings.

  4. 1,1-Dichloroethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,1-Dichloroethylene

    1,1-Dichloroethylene, commonly called vinylidene chloride or 1,1-DCE, is an organochloride with the molecular formula CCl 2 CH 2.It is a colorless liquid with a sharp odor. Like most chlorocarbons, it is poorly soluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. 1,1-DCE was the precursor to the original clingwrap, Saran, for food, but this application has been phased

  5. 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

    The chemical compound 1,2-dichloroethane, commonly known as ethylene dichloride (EDC), is a chlorinated hydrocarbon.It is a colourless liquid with a chloroform-like odour. ...

  8. Tetrachloroethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrachloroethylene

    Tetrachloroethylene is a nonpolar solvent for organic materials. Additionally, it is volatile, relatively stable, and non-flammable. For these reasons, it became a leading solvent in dry cleaning operations worldwide beginning in the 1940s [13].

  9. Polarizability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarizability

    Water is a very polar molecule, but alkanes and other hydrophobic molecules are more polarizable. Water with its permanent dipole is less likely to change shape due to an external electric field. Water with its permanent dipole is less likely to change shape due to an external electric field.
