A)MTBE is a nonpolar molecule and dissolves well in nonpolar soils, where it can leach into the ground water.
B)MTBE is very volatile, and escapes into the air when gasoline is pumped. MTBE can then be washed into the soil by acid rain.
C)MTBE is a polar molecule and, if oxygenated gasoline is spilled onto the ground, the MTBE dissolves into ground water.
D)MTBE is not soluble in oxygenated gasolines, and therefore is never burned with the rest of the fuel.
