Ethylalcohol is a covalent compound, yet it is soluble in water in all proportions. ... Ethyl alchol contain hydroxyl group (-OH) which gets bonded to water molecules readily through hydrogenbonding. So it is miscible with water in all proportions.

ethyl alcohol or C2H6O  is a polar compound because it has a hydroxyl group (-OH) which is completely miscible in water because water also has hydroxyl group
