Let's rank the solubility of each of these compounds in water.
00:04
So starting with this first set, we have two alkyl chains to compare.
00:08
Well, the higher degree of branching is going to be a bit more soluble in water.
00:13
Therefore, this compound is going to be the least soluble.
00:16
It doesn't have any intermolecular forces beyond dispersion that are going to allow it to be more soluble in water.
00:26
So this one will be the least, then the more branched compound.
00:29
Then the ether, because it now has a dipole -diple moment, but the alcohol is the most like water.
00:36
It has hydrogen bonding that could form with water, and it has the dipole -dipole forces, whereas the ether only has the dipole interactions...
