Explanation:
Because it is a very non-polar molecule, with only carbon-carbon and carbon-hydrogen bonds. It is able to bond to itself very well through nonpolar van der Waals interactions, but it is not able to form significant attractive interactions with very polar solvent molecules like water.

Solubility of Organic Compounds Acetone (also known as propanone), (CH3)2C=O is a moderately polar organic solvent while petroleum ether (a mixtures of alkanes) and hexanes are non-polar. Thus, most organic molecules are typically relatively non-polar and are usually soluble in organic solvents.
