Water: polar

5% NaOH solution: polar

5% HCl solution: polar
1. Cyclohexane: immiscible (all)
Cyclohexane is a clear, colorless solution that gives off a strong odor. It is immiscible in water, because
cyclohexane is a hydrocarbon, and hydrocarbons are known to be nonpolar compounds. Carbon atoms in
cyclohexane form a hexagonal shape, with carbon to carbon bonds on both sides and 2 hydrogen bonds on
each carbon atom. The electronegativity of carbon and hydrogen are almost equal, therefore making it a
nonpolar covalent bonded molecule. It is also hydrophobic. (http://creationwiki.org/Cyclohexane)
Cyclohexane also has a relatively high melting point, 80.7 C, and a higher boiling point means that the
intermolecular forces between cyclohexane are very strong. Cyclohexane is also insoluble in 5% NaOH
solution and 5% HCl solution, because these two are polar solvents, and solubility rules state that like
dissolves like.
2. DCM: immiscible (all)
DCM is a clear, colorless solution that gives off a sweet mild odor and is non-flammable. Although it is a polar
substance, it is still immiscible in water. The solubility of DCM is low because DCM lacks the ability to
hydrogen bond. (https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20091112001941AAedeGw) With poor
hydrogen bonding, its molecules will not break apart and form bonds with/dissolve in water (although, it
is not entirely insoluble in water).
(https://chemistry.stackexchange.com/questions/38137/dichloromethane-solubility-in-water) DCM is also
much denser than water, hence the formation of two separate layers, with DCM at the bottom. DCM is also
immiscible with 5% NaOH solution and 5% HCL solution because even though both solvents are highly polar,
DCM only dissolves in most mid- to low-polarity organics very well.

3. Ethanol: miscible (all)
Ethanol is a clear, colorless solution that gives off a mild odor.
4. Phenol: immiscible (all, except 5% NaOH solution)
5. Benzoic acid: insoluble (all, except 5% NaOH solution)
