Each molecule consists of a long non-polar covalent hydrocarbon ‘tail’ and a polar, ionic ‘head’ where the charge is. This structure explains the cleansing action of soap as the non-polar ...

Opposite polar ends of molecules attract and hold one molecule to another. Alcohol has one O–H bond which is polar, but a large portion of the molecule is made up of C–H bonds which are nonpolar.

high surface tension relatively high viscosity All ionic lattices and polar covalent molecules are: soluble in water and other polar solvents insoluble in non-polar solutions (eg hexane ...
