Styles Organic compounds tend not to mix with water. What is the reason for this chemical characteristic of organic compounds with water? 1.To the polarity of water and that organic compounds are nonpolar. 2.Because water forms a hydrogen bond and hydrocarbons do not have polarity for this, unless they have an oxygen in the chain. 3.Some alkanes can mix with water if they have a carbonyl or hydroxyl group. 4.All are correct L2 Editing
