About: Why isn't pentanol (CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2OH) very soluble in water   Sponge Permalink

An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

The extended hydrocarbon tail counterbalances the dipole at the end of the molecule. The longer the tail, the less polar the molecule. Covalent subtances that are very soluble in water are generally polar, have all three intermolecular forces and form hydrogen bonds with water.
