AI Generated Solution

To determine the solubility of the given compounds in water, we will analyze each compound based on its molecular structure and the presence of polar and non-polar functional groups. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Phenol (C6H5OH)**: - **Analysis**: Phenol contains a hydroxyl (-OH) group which is polar, and a benzene ring which is non-polar. The presence of both polar and non-polar parts means that phenol is partially soluble in water. - **Conclusion**: Partially soluble. ...
