The dye is spilled onto the student's T-shirt. The student runs to the water tap and washes the spot with water. What result would you expect to see, and why? The dye washed off, because water is a polar substance that can bind to the polar dye. The dye washed off, because the polar water binds to the non-polar dye more strongly than the dye binds to the T-shirt. The dye did not wash off, because the polar-dye has bound strongly to the T- shirt and cannot be washed off with water. The dye did not wash off, because water is a polar substance that cannot wash the non-polar dye.arrow_forward

The molecule is composed of two X atoms, four Y atoms, and six Z atoms. Each X atom is connected to three Y atoms, and each Y atom is connected to one X atom and two Z atoms. Furthermore, each Z atom is connected to three Y atoms.

Specify the molecular shape of this molecule, and whether the molecule is polar or nonpolar. (Hint: In terms of polarity, see whether the dipoles in the molecule cancel or not. A molecule containing polar bonds can be nanpolar if the dipoles cancel each other. You can imagine the dipoles as ropes pulling on the central atom–If the pulls cancel each other, that is, the central atom cannot move, then the molecule is nonpolar. If on the other hand the opposite is true, then the molecule is polar.)
