What happens if you mix acetone with water?
If acetone is added to water, acetone would completely dissolve. WHY? —The carbonyl group on acetone would be able to form a hydrogen bonds (much stronger than dispersion forces). There would be no change in the type or amount of hydrogen bonding that would take place from the perspective of water.
