The latter. C6H14 is a hydrocarbon, which is not water soluble; the molecule is non-polar. Whereas C6H13OH has that nice hydroxyl radical added on, which gives the molecule some polarity. Water, of course, is a polar solvent.

Are ionic compounds or covalent compounds more soluble in water Why?

Ionic compounds are generally more soluble in water than covalent compounds because ionic compounds dissociate into their constituent ions when they come into contact with water, forming ion-dipole interactions with water molecules. Covalent compounds do not readily dissociate in water, making them less soluble.

Are all ionic compounds Almost all ionic compounds are soluble in water?

Almost all. Some such as calcium carbonate, silver chloride are not soluble. Generally ionic compounds are soluble in water due to their ionic bonds which makes them easy to dissociate in polar solutions such as water.


Does water hold everything?

No. There are a number of compounds that are soluble in water, but there are a large number of compounds and substances that are not.


Which type of compound is typically soluble in water?

Ionic compounds are typically soluble in water, as they can dissociate into ions when in solution, allowing them to interact with the polar water molecules. Covalent compounds, especially those with nonpolar bonds, are generally less soluble in water.

Does the number of oxygen in a compound predict how water soluble it is if not then what does predict water solubility from highest to lowest CH3OCH3 and CH4 and CH3OH?

The number of oxygen atoms in a compound does not always directly predict its water solubility. In general, compounds containing more polar functional groups like hydroxyl groups (OH) tend to be more water-soluble. Therefore, from highest to lowest water solubility, it would be CH3OH (methanol) > CH3OCH3 (dimethyl ether) > CH4 (methane).


What is the structural formula of c3h7cooh ch3oh-c3h7cooch3 hoh?

The structural formula of C3H7COOH is CH3CH2COOH (propionic acid). The structural formula of CH3OH-C3H7COOCH3 is CH3OH + CH3CH2COOCH3 (methyl propionate). H2O (water) is produced when these two compounds react together.
