MCQ
The compound which gets dissolved in water is:
- A$\mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{H}_6$
- B$\mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{H}_4$
- C$\mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{H}_2$
- ✓$\mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{H}_5 \mathrm{OH}$
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
$\mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{H}_5 \mathrm{OH}$
Ethanol has electronegative oxygen atom in it, and hence it takes part in hydrogen bonding with water.
Because of excessive hydrogen bonding with water, Ethanol dissolves in it.
