Respuesta :

No, vinegar can be soluble in water since water is the universal solvent

Answer:

No

Explanation:

This does not mean that vinegar is insoluble totally. In fact, vinegar is soluble in water because water is a polar solvent.

For a substance to be soluble in another, it must obey the rule of solubility.

The rule states that "like dissolves like"

It implies that polar solvent will only dissolve polar solute.

Also, non-polar solvent will only dissolve non-polar solute.

  • Vegetable oil is a non-polar solvent
  • It cannot dissolve a polar solute such as vinegar

Therefore, the answer is no, vinegar will dissolve in water.
