Consider methyl ethyl ketone (CH,COCH,CH;) and diethyl ether (CH,CH,OCH,CH;). Which is more soluble in water and why? The ketone is more soluble in water because it contains less than six carbons. The ether is more soluble in water because a carbonyl is less polar than an ether. The ketone is more soluble in water because a carbonyl is more polar than an ether. The ether is more soluble in water because it is an unbranched chain and the ketone carbonyl creates a branching segment. The ether is more soluble in water because it is contains less than six carbons.
