    Answer: (c) CHCl3

    Explanation:

    From the rule : a polar solvent will dissolve a polar compound and a non polar solvent will also dissolves a non polar compound.

    (a) CH4 is non - polar and water is a polar solvent. Therefore CH4 is not soluble in water

    (b) CCl4 is non polar and water is a polar solvent. Therefore CCl4 is not soluble in wtaer

    (c) CHCl3 is polar molecule and water is also a polar solvent.

    Therefore CHCl3 is expected to be most soluble in water
