Question 12 • Chemistry

Which is the best example of immiscible liquids?

Answer
A
two nonpolar liquids that can dissolve into one another
B
two polar liquids that have high surface tensions
C
a polar liquid and a nonpolar liquid that do not dissolve into one another
D
a polar liquid and a nonpolar liquid that have low surface tensions

Explanation

Immiscible liquids do not mix or dissolve into one another. Polar and nonpolar liquids often do not mix because their different molecular properties make them incompatible. Therefore, the best example is a polar liquid and a nonpolar liquid that do not dissolve into one another.
