Write 5 things which dissolve in water and which do not dissolve in water

Answer: Many things are not dissolvable in water and some of them are as follows

  • Wax

  • Flour

  • Sand

  • Oil

  • Stones

Note

  • Chemistry states that the compounds or molecules that are hydrophobic to water are not dissolved in water 

  • And the dissolvability of a substance depends on its polarity. If the substance added to water is polar or soluble then it will easily dissolve in water and if it is non-polar it will not dissolve in water.
