Which of the following molecules is most suitable to disperse benzen in water?

Options

A.
B.
C.
D.

Answer

C

Explanation

Benzene is non-polar in nature. As we know that non- polar disperses more to non-polar substances. Therefore, meta-methyl nonylbenzene being nonpolar from both sides will disperse more to benzene. All other substances (a, b and d) have either one side polar or both sides polar.
