Why solubility of hydrocarbons decreases as no of carbon atoms increases?

the solubility of the hydrocarbons decrease because as the number of carbons increase the electron density of the electronegative element i.e.oxygen increase and the polarity of o-H bond decrease . Thus the capability of hydrocarbon to form hydrogen bond decrease and its solubility decrease
