Solution

Statement-I states that lower members of aldehydes and ketones are soluble in water due to dipole-dipole interaction.

Statement-II states that all aldehydes and ketones are fairly soluble in organic solvents like benzene, ether, methanol, and chloroform.

To determine the correctness of these statements, we can analyze each statement separately:

Statement-I: Lower members of aldehydes and ketones are soluble in water due to dipole-dipole interaction. This statement is correct. Aldehydes and ketones have a polar carbonyl group, which can form dipole-dipole interactions with water molecules, making them soluble in water.

Statement-II: All aldehydes and ketones are fairly soluble in organic solvents like benzene, ether, methanol, and chloroform. This statement is also correct. Aldehydes and ketones have a nonpolar hydrocarbon chain, which can dissolve in organic solvents that have similar nonpolar characteristics.

Based on the analysis, we can conclude that both Statement-I and Statement-II are correct. Therefore, the correct answer is option A: Statement-I and II both are correct.
