A. propane does not dissolve in water.
- From the given compounds, propane is alkane, propanoic acid is acid, propanol and glycerol is alcohol.
- Alcohol and acid both contain oxygen thus making it polar in nature.
- These polar compounds can interact with polar water.
- Alkane has only carbon and hydrogen in its chain, making it non polar, which doesn't react with polar water and hence doesn't dissolve in it.
