(a)
Interpretation:
The following ether should be labeled as water soluble or water insoluble:
Concept Introduction:
If an organic compound is soluble in water, it should form an H bond with water molecule. Low molecular weight ethers are soluble in water. When the alkyl group of the ether has more than a total 5 carbons, ether is not soluble in water as the non-polar portion is too large.

The following ether should be labeled as water soluble or water insoluble:
