To determine if a compound will be likely to dissolve in water, we need to look at their type of bonding. Since water is a polar solvent, polar compounds will be dissolved in this type of solvent, therefore any compound that presents a charge, will be dissolved in water. In the question, we are presented with 2 compounds that have charges, Silver nitrate and glucose, these are the compounds that will dissolve in water
