Why are hydrocarbons not soluble in water? Quick Answer. Hydrocarbons do not dissolve in water because they are nonpolar compounds and water is a polar solvent. The general solubility rule is like dissolves like, meaning polar solvents dissolve polar solutes and nonpolar solvents dissolve nonpolar solutes.
Bobcats can live in a wide variety of habitats, including swamps, deserts, and mountain ranges, and they feed on different sizes of prey â small (mice), medium (rabbits and poultry), and large (domestic animals and deer).
What do they eat? Bobcats are strictly meat eaters. Stealthy hunters, they stalk their prey, then pounce and (if successful) kill with a bite to the vertebrae of the neck. They hunt rodents, rabbits, small hoofed mammals, large ground birds, and sometimes reptiles. They occasionally eat small domesticated animals and poultry. 1  Primary Diet. 2  carnivore. 3  eats terrestrial vertebrates. 4  Animal Foods. 5  birds. 6  mammals.
