A compound that forms H-bond with water.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
But why is that, exactly?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Hydrogen bonding influences the solubility of one substance in another. Covalent compounds do not generally dissolve in water as they have less or no H-bond at all, but those that can form a hydrogen bond with water, readily dissolve in it. For example, alcohols like ethanol, ammonia, amines, lower aldehydes and ketones are soluble in water due to the formation of hydrogen bonds with water molecules.
