  2. Chemical polarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_polarity

    Polar liquids have a tendency to be more viscous than nonpolar liquids. [citation needed] For example, nonpolar hexane is much less viscous than polar water. However, molecule size is a much stronger factor on viscosity than polarity, where compounds with larger molecules are more viscous than compounds with smaller molecules.

  3. Polar aprotic solvent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_aprotic_solvent

    A polar aprotic solvent is a solvent that lacks an acidic proton and is polar. Such solvents lack hydroxyl and amine groups. In contrast to protic solvents, these solvents do not serve as proton donors in hydrogen bonding, although they can be proton acceptors. Many solvents, including chlorocarbons and hydrocarbons, are classifiable as aprotic ...

    where and are the molar weighted segment and area fractional components for the -th molecule in the total system and are defined by the following equation; is a compound parameter of , and . z {\displaystyle z} is the coordination number of the system, but the model is found to be relatively insensitive to its value and is frequently quoted as ...

  6. Paper chromatography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_chromatography

    The more soluble a molecule is, the higher it will migrate up the paper. If a chemical is very non-polar it will not dissolve at all in a very polar solvent. This is the same for a very polar chemical and a very non-polar solvent. When using water (a very polar substance) as a solvent, the more polar the color, the higher it will rise on the ...

  7. Solvation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvation

    Polar solvents are often found to have a high dielectric constant, although other solvent scales are also used to classify solvent polarity. Polar solvents can be used to dissolve inorganic or ionic compounds such as salts. The conductivity of a solution depends on the solvation of its ions. Nonpolar solvents cannot solvate ions, and ions will ...

  8. Specific rotation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_rotation

    For solutions, a slightly different equation is used: [ α ] λ T = α l × c {\displaystyle [\alpha ]_{\lambda }^{T}={\frac {\alpha }{l\times c}}} In this equation, α (Greek letter "alpha") is the measured rotation in degrees, l is the path length in decimeters, c is the concentration in g/mL, T is the temperature at which the measurement was ...

  9. Solvatochromism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvatochromism

    Positive solvatochromism corresponds to a bathochromic shift (or red shift) with increasing solvent polarity. An example of positive solvatochromism is provided by 4,4'-bis(dimethylamino)fuchsone, which is orange in toluene, red in acetone. The main value of the concept of solvatochromism is the context it provides to predict colors of solutions.
