Water, or H2O, is an Covalent compound.
Cu2CO3 is ionic which holds 2 copper and 3 oxygen and 1 molecule of carbon.
Ionic compounds would be least likely to dissolve in water as they are held together by strong electrostatic forces that are not easily broken by water molecules. Non-polar compounds are also unlikely to dissolve in water because water is a polar solvent and non-polar compounds are not attracted to water molecules.
Non-ionic means not carrying an electric charge. Non-ionic compounds or molecules do not contain positively or negatively charged ions, unlike ionic compounds which do. This property allows non-ionic substances to have different solubility and chemical characteristics compared to ionic compounds.
Non-polar compounds are least likely to dissolve in water because water is a polar solvent and non-polar compounds do not interact well with polar substances. Ionic compounds and charged compounds are more likely to dissolve in water due to their ability to interact with the polar water molecules.
Water is a liquid and is usually considered to be the solvent. Water dissolves solutes. Many ionic compounds, but not all, are soluble in water. Water has negative and positive areas on the molecule so it is ideally suited to dissolving the negative and positive ions of an ionic substance. Purely covalent compounds, non-polar, are not supported by water so do not dissolve. Purely covalent, non-polar compounds have no negative and positive areas for the water to support.
Ionic compounds form only between a metal and a non-metal. In water, the elements are Hydrogen and Oxygen, which are both non-metals. Therefore, water is a covalent compound.

The easiest difference to see is that ionic compounds dissolved in water conduct electricity, while covalent ones do not. Ionic compounds consist of a metal and non-metal, but covalents have only non-metal atoms.
Non-ionic means not carrying an electric charge. Non-ionic compounds or molecules do not contain positively or negatively charged ions, unlike ionic compounds which do. This property allows non-ionic substances to have different solubility and chemical characteristics compared to ionic compounds.
A non-polar molecule is typically not soluble in water because they lack ionic groups capable of water molecule interaction. A term for this type of insolubility is "hydrophobic."
ionic, beryllium is a metal and oxygen is a non metal... metal and non metal are always ionic bonding
No; when they say Oils and Water do not mix they mean to say that Hydrophobic liquids are immiscible [won't mix with] Hydrophyllic liquids. In a similar way, the two types of solids that make solutes are different; one ionic and polar, the other both non-ionic and non-polar. Hydrophobic means 'water-disliking' because they are non-polar which in this case means they have no net-electric charges; they are non-ionic. Hydrophyllic means 'water-liking' because they have a net-electric charge; they are ionic - just like the ionic, non-polar-fat disliking Potassium Ion!

Water is a polar molecule, not ionic.
An ionic solid would have a high boiling point, be insoluble in water, and be non-malleable. This is because ionic solids are held together by strong ionic bonds, requiring high temperatures to break them apart. Additionally, their ions are attracted to water molecules, allowing them to dissolve in water.
