← ScienceWhich consequence occurs when highly polar molecular substances dissolve in non-polar solvents?
A)Enhanced solvation of solute clusters
B)Spontaneous micelle formation occurs
C)Minimal miscibility and phase separation✓
D)Significant exothermic enthalpy changes
💡 Explanation
Minimal miscibility and phase separation results because of disparate intermolecular forces; the attractive forces between solvent molecules and solute molecules are weak. Therefore, the solute molecules cannot disperse, rather than clustering due to strong dipole-dipole interactions.
