Answer:

[tex]\blue{\boxed{\red{\sf CCl_4 \: will \: dissolve \: in \: gasoline}}}[/tex]

Explanation:

The simple concept that would be applied is

'Like Dissolves Like.'

According to this, the polar solvent will dissolve the polar solutes and the non-polar solvent will dissolve the non-polar solutes.

classification of given compounds as polar or non-polar,

[tex]\begin{gathered}\boxed{\begin{array}{c|c} \bf Polar & \bf Non-polar \\ \\ \frac{\qquad \qquad}{} & \frac{\qquad \qquad}{} \\ \sf NaCl & \sf CCl_4 \\ \\ \sf NaOH & \sf - \\ \\ \sf KCl & \sf - \end{array}} \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]

Also, the given data says water is a polar solvent while gasoline is a non-polar solvent. From all the information we have, we can conclude that CCl4 is the only compound that will dissolve in gasoline.
