Answer:

Molecules that can hydrogen bond with water have a higher solubility in water.

Explanation:

Molecules which are capable of hydrogen bonds have hydrogen atoms which are covalently bonded to highly electronegative elements (O, N, F). The presence of hydrogen bonding between molecules of a substance indicates that the molecules are polar. This means the molecules will be soluble in a polar solvent such as water.

Some examples of polar molecules which can hydrogen bond are ammonia (NH3) and methanol (CH3OH). The polarity of these molecules indicates that they will dissolve in water.

CO2 can form hydrogen bonds with water, but its linear shape makes it a nonpolar molecule. This means that carbon dioxide is less soluble in water than polar molecules are. The solubility of carbon dioxide is increased when the water is cold, and decreased greatly when the water is warm.

Molcules which have hydrogen bonding (Intermolcular or Intramolecular) have higher boiling point.

It is because the H-Bond is the strongest force so in order to break it we need a high temperature and large amount of energy hence they have high melting point.

Effect of H-Bonding on water solubility.

Generally compounds which can form H bond with water are said to soluble in water.It is due to the fact that H bond joins the two associated molecules together and thus makes them soluble.
