Priya says that chloroethane should dissolve well in water because its C-Cl bond is polar. What is wrong with this idea?
It is heavier than water, and heavy liquids never dissolve
It reacts with water at once to give hydrogen chloride
Its C-Cl bond is not polar at all
It cannot form hydrogen bonds with water, so it does not replace the hydrogen bonds that must break
