Making the world better, one answer at a time. Propanone and propanal are soluble in water because they have polar functional groups. In propanone, the ketone functional group is polar.Water is also polar, and therefore will dissolve propanone. In propanal, the aldehyde functional group is polar.aking the world better, one answer at a time. Propanone and propanal are soluble in water because they have polar functional groups.

But this I am talking about diethyl ether. The solubility of Ether in water also depends on the type of Ether you are using. While the solubility of diethyl ether is very low as mentioned above, tetrahydrofuran is completely soluble. Even 12-crown-4 ether is soluble in water. However, dimethyl ether is not at all soluble in water.
