Correct Answer - D
The solubility of aldhydes and ketones decreases rapidly on increassing the length of the alkyl chain. All aldehydes and ketones are fairly soluble in organic. Solvents like benzene, ether, methanol, chloroform etc. In fact many naturlly, occuring aldehydes and ketones are used to in the blending of perfumes and flavouring agents.
