Question

which example accurately describes a solution? (1 point)
○ polar sugar molecules dissolve in water, which is polar.
○ nonpolar oil molecules dissolve in water, which is polar.
○ nonpolar fat molecules dissolve in water, which is polar.
○ polar sugar molecules dissolve in oil, which is nonpolar.

Explanation:

The principle of "like - dissolves - like" states that polar substances dissolve in polar solvents and non - polar substances dissolve in non - polar solvents. Water is a polar solvent. Sugar is a polar molecule, so it can dissolve in water. Oil and fat are non - polar, so they do not dissolve in water, and polar sugar does not dissolve in non - polar oil.

Answer:

Polar sugar molecules dissolve in water, which is polar.
