(b) insoluble in water is the correct answer

rapperboy: why
Anonymous: Because of the ionic nature of the bonds between the atoms, ionic compounds can easily dissociate in aqueous solutions and form weak ion-dipole bonds(van der waals bonds) with the H2O molecules. Covalent compounds lack the property of dissociation, and as a result, most of them are insoluble in water.
