Source sentences:
text: Chlorophyll is readily soluble in alcohol, mostly insoluble in non polar alkanes like butane and hexane, and has some special relationships with polar water, because of its polar and ionic groups.
text: Chlorophyll itself has a polar head and hydrophobic tail, so it is mostly non soluble in polar water, but can be removed from the plant and conveyed by water as micelle.
text: Chlorophyll is highly soluble in alcohol and slightly soluble in butane.
text: If the chlorophyll itself is completely soluble in petroleum ether, as is generally accepted, why is it not removed from fresh or dried leaves in this solvent?
