We know that polar substances are soluble in polar solvents and non polar substances are soluble in non-polar solvents only. Here the hydrocarbons are non-polar molecular substances and water is a polar solvent. So water can't dissolve hydrocabons.

Hence, as hydrocarbons are non-polar substances, they are insoluble in water as it is a highly polar solvent. 

A colored ion generally indicates a transition metal.

When a function accepts a variable number of arguments , its prototype cannot provide any information about the number of arguments and type of those variable arguments. Hence the compiler cannot warn about the mismatches. The programmer must make sure that arguments match or must manually insert explicit typecast.

Scope, quality, and cost are the triple constraints. Quality is a function of these three areas and can impact them; however it is not considered one of the components of the triple constraint. Therefore, Answer A, B, and C are incorect.

In chemistry, Weak bonds are those forces of attraction that, do not take a large amount of energy to break.

For example, hydrogen bonds are broken by energies in the order of 4 - 5 kcal/mol.

Ionic bonds, hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions are considered weak bonds.

Weak bonds are transient and easily reversible.
