I'm a chemistry tutor and I've come up with an analogy for this before - imagine a highly polar substance as a box full of toy magnets (the big differences being molecules are WAY smaller than toy magnets, and the magnets have a magnetic dipole while polar molecules have an electric dipole), and a non-polar substance as a box full of non-magnetic things like ping-pong balls. Magnets will clump together well with other brands of magnets as they attract each other strongly, and ping pong balls will easily mix together with golf balls or marbles if they're thrown into a box together and shaken up. But throw a bunch of ping-pong balls into the box of magnets and they don't have the energy to break the magnets apart and slip into the spaces between them - the forces are just too strong, and the ping-pong balls are not magnetic. Likewise, throw a bunch of magnets into the box of ping-pong balls and the magnets will attract each other, clump together and push the ping-pong balls aside like a bunch of socially awkward nerds huddling together at a party away from the extroverts. Like dissolves like!
Hey, this was great content, glad to see you back! Might I suggest though to reduce the music audio level, it was loud enough to be distracting from what you we're saying. Looking forward to more.
Could you please just answer one question of mine? Does Entropy increase, when the solute readily interacts with the solvent, as is the case of when HCl is mixed with water, and decrease when the solvent and solute remain seperate after mixing them, as is the case for when oil is mixed with water? And plz tell me who is providing the initial energy for the bonds to brake? Some h bonds must brake and the polar covalent bonds in HCL must also brake in order for water to interact with anion Cl

You must be a great tutor to your students.
That makes so much sense thank you
The best explamation I've ever found in this matter. Appreciate your informative presentation. ❤
Thank you so much for your kind words 😀
Had to watch it twice to fully internalize but I got there. Amazingly well done, I learned a ton!
Very cool, thanks!

Absolutely brilliant. Wasn’t understanding this for a while and your explanation was spot-on.
Thanks so much! Glad it clicked for ya
You’ve come a long way from teaching on paper to this! Your videos are so helpful
Aw, thanks so much for your kind words 😀
This is exactly what i need, thank you!
You're very welcome! Thanks so much for watching 😀
Thank you for this simple explanation I finally understood the process on molecular level!
@@julietr2915 you're very welcome! 😄
Thats exactly what I need 💙
Very cool, glad I could help! 😀
That makes so much sense, thank you so much for explaining this.
You're very welcome. Thank you for watching 😃
Thank you for your amazing videos!
Very well explained! However, I prefer the video without the music.
Thank you!
Awesome video, I enjoyed this video Ben! Thank you! 😀
You're very welcome! Thank you for your kind words 😀
@@BensChemVideos You welcome Ben! 😄
Great refresher -- thank you!!
Yup, I am subscribing to the channel.
great job man
Thank you!

What about temperature-solubility relationship? Why do certain substances (Carbonates) have negative temperature-solubility relationships?
After following ben your channel and watching breaking bad obsessed with chemistry and willing to pursue in this field 🙂
After studying 6 years chemistry .. Now I Realised that NaCl when didslives in water the Na breaks the bond with Cl .
No live streaming on organic chemistry anymore?
I'll stream again when I get some free time. Currently all of my time and energy is spent taking care of my family.
great explanation thank u man
You're very welcome! Many thanks for watching 😀
Music is a little loud on this video
Perfection
Excellent lesson. Thank you. (Very annoying music.)
You're very welcome! Many thanks for the honest feedback 😀
Thanks!
@@naimsantos2430 you're very welcome 😁
You save lives mate. The underlying principles are much more important than the hacks like dissovles like and other stupid teaching tricks
Thanks man! Merry Christmas! 🎄
very nice
thank you sir
You're very welcome 😀
thank u sir
You're very welcome! Many thanks for watching 😀
