Answer:

Camphor is the odd one.

Explanation:

  • Salt is sodium chloride (NaCl) which is soluble in water and on mixing with water forms saltwater.
  • Soda in chemistry is commonly known as Na₂CO₃ or NaHCO₃ i.e- washing soda or caustic soda and baking soda respectively. Both are soluble in water.
  • Morchud is scientifically known as copper sulphate(CuSO₄) or blue vitriol.
  • The chemical formula reveals that this blue coloured crystalline compound contains has water of crystallization i.e. CuSO₄.5H₂O.
  • Thus it is also soluble in water.

Based on the solubility capacity in water,

  • Salt, Soda And CuSO₄(Morchud) are inorganic salts, soluble in water and forms ions and thus are ionic except for camphor.
  • Camphor is the organic molecule that sublimes into the air. These are made up of wax. These are hydrophobic i.e practically insoluble in water and float in water giving camphor molecules.
  • Camphor is soluble in organic solvents like alcohol, ether, chloroform etc.

Hence Camphor is the odd one.
