Answer

a. $CaCO_3$ is more likely to be soluble in water. b. Retinol is more likely to be soluble in carbon tetrachloride $CCl_4$. c. Sucrose is more likely to be soluble in water. d. Cholesterol is more likely to be soluble in carbon tetrachloride $CCl_4$.

Work Step by Step

- Ionic and polar solutes are more likely to be soluble in polar solvents, in this case, the polar solvent we have is water. - Nonpolar solutes are more likely to be soluble in nonpolar solvents, in this case, the nonpolar solvent we have is carbon tetrachloride.
