    (Missing in the question):

    -NH4Cl, ammonium chloride soluble in water, insoluble in Hexane.

    -C10H8, naphthalene insoluble in water, soluble in Hexane.

    -C2H5OH, ethanol soluble in water, soluble in Hexane.

    -CO (NH2) 2, urea soluble in water, insoluble in Hexane.

    While Hexane is anon polar solvent and water is a polar solvent,

    So your answer is C10H8 naphthalene

    C10H8 (as a non-polar) so it forms a layer in the water (which is a polar solvent) and at Hexane (which is a non-polar solvent) so C10H8 will dissolve in it.
