Remember like dissolves like. Water is a polar molecule so the more polar compounds will be more soluble. For example, hexane (completely non-polar) is hardly soluble in water but hexanol is more soluble because of the attached OH group. Looking at the 2nd problem, E is the least solubility because it is non-polar but all of the others have a polar component.
