Explanation:
Organic compounds are defined as the compounds which contain carbon as their main element. For example, is an organic compound.
Generally, organic compounds are non-polar in nature and due to the presence of covalent bonding organic compounds have low melting point.
As compound A melts at and is soluble in water. This means it is an ionic compound as it has high melting point and it is also polar in nature.
Whereas compound B melts at and is insoluble in water. This means that this compound has covalent bonding and it is also non-polar in nature
. Hence, it is more likely to be organic in nature.
Thus, we can conclude that compound B is more likely to be an organic
compound.
