Question

name two substances that partly dissolve in oil
​

Answer 1

Answer:

A variety of substances will dissolve oil, including gasoline and carbon tetrachloride -- both of which have non-polar molecules. Acetone is a special class of solvent called “dipolar aprotic” that, depending on the circumstances, can act as a weak acid or base; it dissolves oil and mixes with water as well.

Answer 2

adding hexane or another non-polar solvent to your oil is not a dilution if that oil sample does not already contain simple hydrocarbons
