The first step in the study of organic compounds is the purity determination. The classification by solubility is also important.
Water can dissolve organic compounds that are capable of hydrogen bonding. This would be organic compounds that contain a hydroxy group or amines. Remember that amines will not form hydrogen bonds in aromatic groups and their solubility in water decreases with increase in carbon atoms.
Organic compounds have to be defined as best as possible to determine what is soluble in water. Organic compounds are molecules composed with carbons--pure hydrocarbons like octane would not be soluble in water. Organic compounds can also have electronegative molecules in it. Dichloroethane, methanol, ethanol, etc are soluble in water. However, most organic compounds will more likely have low solubility in water, since increasing the number of carbon molecules in any compound drastically reduces water solubility.
Yes, many organic compounds are non-polar and they solute only in non-polar solvents. Anorganic compounds are mainly polar and they solute in polar solvents.
Sugars and starches are organic compounds. But not all organic compounds are sugars and starches .

No they do not. They have low water solubility.
In general, inorganic compounds will dissolve in polar or inorganic solvents such as water, whereas organic compounds will dissolve in organic solvents. However there are many exceptions to these.
Solubility is the aptitude of a chemical substance to be soluble (to form a homogeneous solution) in a given solvent. I suppose that you think to volatile organic compounds.

Like dissolves like. So organic compounds are generally soluble in organic solvents whereas inorganic compounds are more soluble in inorganic solvents (though there are plenty of exceptions to this).

Halogens dissolve in water, but not easily. However, halogens quickly dissolve in organic compounds, and lighter fluid is an organic compound.

organic compounds are basically composed of carbon atoms.polar organic compounds are those compounds in which the organic compounds have the properties of polar compounds.
They are termed organic compounds. Compounds containing only carbon and hydrogen are called hydrocarbons and they are a subset of organic compounds.
