For the solvents water, ethanol, and benzene which gives the correct order of solubility of monosaccharides?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Monosaccharides have polar hydroxyl groups, which can engage in hydrogen bonding with the polar solvent molecules, water and ethanol. Benzene is a nonpolar solvent and cannot form hydrogen bonds. Therefore, monosaccharides are least soluble in benzene and most soluble in water, making choice C the correct order.
