HEY ❤️
Acetone is able to fully dissolve in water, meaning it's miscible in water. Initially, that probably doesn't sound impressive, but many organic compounds don't mix well with water.
Acetone is small, which helps, but there's more. Acetone has a carbonyl group, which is a carbon double bonded to an oxygen.
This carbonyl group is polar,
meaning the compound has a slight charge. As a general rule, polar molecules can dissolve in polar molecules. Since water is polar, and acetone is polar due to the carbonyl group, they can mix.
