Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
____ is the reaction between a compound and water to form a more soluble product.
A
chemical reaction
B
hydration
C
degredation
D
hydrolysis
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In other words we can say that hydrolysis is the reaction of the water molecule with another compound and results into the formation of a new product. Next the term is Hydration, as the name suggests Hydration is the process of involving or addition of water molecules to form hydrated salts of hydrated ions.

Detailed explanation-2: -A hydration reaction is a chemical reaction where a hydrogen and hydroxyl ion is attached to a carbon in a carbon double bond. Generally, one reactant (usually an alkene or alkyne) reacts with water to yield ethanol, isopropanol, or 2-butanol (all alcohols) are a product.

Detailed explanation-3: -What happens during hydration? Water is added to a compound in a hydration reaction. In an alkene hydration reaction, water, in the form of a proton and hydroxyl group, is added across the pi bond of the alkene.

Detailed explanation-4: -If the solvent is polar, like water, then a smaller hydrocarbon component and/or more charged, hydrogen bonding, and other polar groups will tend to increase the solubility.
