Aromatic hydrocarbons are not necessarily insoluble in water. Benzene is slightly soluble in water: 1.79 g/L at 25 deg C. Compounds such as benzoic acid or phenol are much more soluble in water due to their stronger dipole moments.
Because hydrocarbons are non-polar molecules and water is a polar molecule. The rule of thumb is "like dissolves like." Therefore polar things are soluble in other polar things, and non-polar things...
Aromatic Waters are saturated solutions (unless otherwise specified) of volatile oils or other aromatic or volatile substances in distilled water. They are clear and free from solid impurities. They...
The aromatic hydrocarbons are those compounds which are comprised of only the elements carbon and hydrogen arranged so that at least some of the carbons are linked together to form a ring.
Alcohols have that -OH stuck on them ... that makes them polar (one part of the molecule is charged compared to the rest) and water is the ultimate polar solvent.
An aromatic hydrocarbon (abbreviated as AH) or arene (or sometimes aryl hydrocarbon), the hydrocarbon with a conjugated cyclic molecular structure that is much more stable than the hypothetical...
