What types of substances are most likely to be soluble in water?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Ionic compounds are likely to be soluble in water.

Step by step solution

01

Define ionic compounds

Ionic compounds are those compounds that are formed by the gain or loss of one or more electrons (ionic bond) due to which these atoms contain positive or negative charges which make them polar in nature.

02

Determine the solubility of ionic compounds in water

Since ionic compounds are polar in nature just like water and as we know that鈥楲ike dissolve like鈥檛herefore ionic compounds are easily dissolved in water.

Hence, those substances which are polar in nature just like water molecules, most likely to be soluble in water.
