Q

What makes water polar

A

The structure of water. Oxygen has a partial negative charge, and the hydrogens have a partial positive charge. The uneven distribution of charge gives rise to the large dipole moment of water.

The dipole moment in this figure points in the direction from negative to positive, the convention used by physicists and physical chemists; organic chemists draw it pointing in the opposite direction. The van der Waals radius is the effective distance
between an atom’s nucleus and its electronic surface, whether the atom is alone or part of a molecule

hydrocarbons such as C6H14 [hexane])
Fatty acids, cholesterol

25
both polar and nonpolar character Interaction between nonpolar molecules is very weak have van der Waals interactions

26
a spherical arrangement of organic molecules in water solution clustered so that their hydrophobic parts are buried inside the sphere their hydrophilic parts are on the surface of the sphere and in contact with the water environment formation depends on the attraction between temporary induced dipoles
Micelle
27
how do micelles form?
When micelles form, the ionized polar groups are in contact with the water, and the nonpolar parts of the molecule are protected from contact with the water.
28
