Glucose or sucrose are soluble in water but cyclohexane and benzene are insolule in water. Explain.

Answer»

Solution :GLUCOSE CONTAIN 5 - OH groups and sucrose contain EIGHT - OH groups, because of this they form INTERMOLECULAR hydrogen bonding, so they are SOLUBLE in water. But benzene and cyclohexane doesn.t contain - OH groups hence doesn.t from intermolecular hydrogen bonding, so they are not soluble in water.
