Chlorophyll is insoluble in?

Correct answer: D. None of these

  • A. Carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)
  • B. Alcohol
  • C. Organic Solvents
  • D. None of these

Explanation

Chlorophyll is a hydrophobic molecule, meaning it does not dissolve in water, a polar solvent. However, it is soluble in nonpolar solvents like carbon tetrachloride and organic solvents such as alcohols and other organic solvents. Therefore, the correct option is 'None of these' because chlorophyll is insoluble in water, which is not listed among the options.
