Answer:

CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₃

Explanation:

Cyclohexane is a nonpolar compound. There is a rule that states that "like dissolves like" meaning polar is soluble in polar and nonpolar is soluble in nonpolar.

CH₂Cl₂. This compound is polar

HI. This compound is slightly polar (dipole moment = 0.38 D)

NaBr. This compound is ionic (great difference in electronegativity between the atoms).

CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₃. This compound is nonpolar, and the one that will most likely dissolve cyclohexane.
