Answer:
True
Explanation:
The isopropyl methyl ether is a polar molecule because its dipole moment is different from 0. The ether is formed by a molecule of oxygen between carbons, in this case, the oxygen is bonded to an isopropyl, which has 3 carbons, and to a methyl, with only one carbon, so, the dipole, which is the polar difference between the atoms, will be stronger in the isopropyl bond.
Because of that, the oxygen will have a partial negative charge. The water is also a polar substance, and "like dissolve like". Because water has a dipole in the hydrogen and in the oxygen, the hydrogen of it may bond with the oxygen of the ether, forming a hydrogen bond, which is strong.
