Solution

The correct option is A ethanamine
Diethyl ether is a common polar aprotic solvent. It has limited solubility in water and dissolves in water. In di-ethyl ether, the flexible chain of atoms sweeps out a volume that prevents hydrogen bonding between the ether oxygen atom and hydrogen atoms of water. But ethanamine soluble in water and form intermolecular $H -$ bonds with water.
