Consider the solubility of caffeine in water (structure provided below). Identify which ONE of the following statements is CORRECT. a. Caffeine has H-bond acceptors that facilitate its solubility in water. b. Caffeine has H-bond donors that facilitate its solubility in water. C. Only van der Waals interactions occur between water and caffeine in solution. d. Caffeine molecules are nonpolar; therefore in the solid state dispersion forces are easily overcome for caffeine to dissolve in water. e. H-bonding interactions that occur between water molecules are stronger than any interactions between caffeine and water; hence caffeine does not dissolve.
