A liquid that will dissolve fat is?
The correct answer is: C
Explanation
Organic solvents, such as alcohol, chloroform, petroleum ether, and hexane, can dissolve fats and oils. Other organic solvents that can dissolve fats include: benzene, diethylether, and tetrachloromethane. Kerosene also falls within this category of non-polar solvents.
Fats are insoluble in water because they are hydrophobic and do not have polar bonds. Water is a polar molecule, meaning that the oxygen atom has a partial negative charge and the hydrogen atoms have partial positive charges.
