Which of the following would be soluable in water? Benzene C6H6 Diethylamine (CH3)2 NH Isopropyl alcohol HOCH(CH3)2 Carbon tetrachloride CCl4 Which of the following would be soluable in water? Benzene C6H6 Diethylamine (CH3)2 NH Isopropyl alcohol HOCH(CH3)2 Carbon tetrachloride CCl4 Benzene C6H6 Diethylamine (CH3)2 NH Isopropyl alcohol HOCH(CH3)2 Carbon tetrachloride CCl4 Solution Benzene and carbon tetrachloride are relatively less polar compared to water and are not soluble in it. In comparison diethylamine has amine group and has a hydrogen free to participate in hydrogen bonding and thus is soluble in water. Similarly isopropyl alcohol has OH group which participates in hydrogen bonding thus making it soluble. Thus water soluble compounds are diethylamine and isopropyl alcohol. .

Solution
Benzene and carbon tetrachloride are relatively less polar compared to water and are not soluble
in it.
In comparison diethylamine has amine group and has a hydrogen free to participate in hydrogen
bonding and thus is soluble in water.
Similarly isopropyl alcohol has OH group which participates in hydrogen bonding thus making it
soluble.
Thus water soluble compounds are diethylamine and isopropyl alcohol.
