Which example accurately describes a solution?

Question

A. Polar sugar molecules dissolves in water, which is polar.
B. Polar sugar molecules dissolve in oil, which is nonpolar
C. Nonpolar oil molecules dissolve in water, which is polar
D. Nonpolar fat molecules dissolve in water, which is polar

Answer 1

The example that accurately describes a solution is:

A. Polar sugar molecules dissolve in water, which is polar.

This is because polar solvents, like water, are able to dissolve other polar substances, such as sugar, due to the attraction between the polar molecules. The other options describe scenarios where nonpolar substances are trying to dissolve in polar solvents, which is not effective due to the principle of "like dissolves like."
