Detailed Solution

KCI < CH₃OH < CH3CN < cyclohexane
(i) Cyclohexane and n-octane both are non-polar, so they will mix completely.
(ii) KCI is an ionic compound, while octane is non-polar organic compound, so KCI will not dissolve in n-octane.
(iii) CH₃OH and CH₃CN both are polar but CH₃CN will dissolve more than CH₃OH in octane because CH₃CN is less polar than CH₃OH.
