glucose and sucrose have OH-groups but cyclohexane and benzene not have OH-groups so, they are not combined with H-bond and not formed water. so it is insoluble in water

glucose and sucrose are polar solvents so that''s why they dissolved in water but where as the cyclohexane and benzene are non polar they are dissolved in non polar solvents like chloroform,benzene,,,,,,

clue:polar solvents always dissolves in polar solvents

non polar solvents are dissolved in non polar solvents
