The empirical rule 'like dissolves like' predicts that:
ASolubility depends only on temperature
BPolar solutes dissolve well in polar solvents
CAll solids dissolve in all liquids
DPolar solutes dissolve well in non-polar solvents
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Polar solutes dissolve well in polar solvents
'Like dissolves like' — substances with similar intermolecular forces dissolve in each other. Polar in polar (NaCl in water), non-polar in non-polar (cholesterol in benzene). Mismatched polarities give low solubility.
