Explanation:

Lower alcohols are more soluble in water than higher alcohols. With the increase in the molar mass, solubility decreases. In alcohols, −OH group is polar and forms hydrogen bonds with water. This makes alcohol water soluble. The alkyl chain (hydrocarbon chain) is non-polar and decreases the solubility of alcohol in water.
