How does water interact with non polar substances?
Water does not interact well with nonpolar substances because they do not have large enough dipoles to cause water to interact with them and not other water molecules. Water is said to squeeze nonpolar molecules together because of the hydrophobic effect it of nonpolar compounds.
What polar molecules are attracted to water?
Hydrophobic molecules do not dissolve in water. This is because water is hydrophilic. Another way to say this is that lipids, which are nonpolar, cannot dissolve in water, which in polar.
Is bacteria and virus polar or non polar?
Bacteria and viruses are not molecules and are neither polar nor nonpolar. The contain both polar and nonpolar molecules.
How polar and non polar bonds affect solubility?
Molecules with many polar bonds are soluble in polar solvents.Also, molecules with none or few polar bonds (many non-polar bonds) are soluble in non-polar solvent. e.g Water is a polar solvent so substances with many polar bonds are soluble in it.
What molecule would mix best with water?
Polar Molecules
What type of molecules interact with water polar or nonpolar?
Polar. Just think of this, oil is non polar, oil doesnt mix with water.

What type of organic molecule requires the action of emulsifiers to be sucessfully digested?
Fat molecules. Water molecule is polar, and therefore water is a good solvent for other polar molecules, dissolving them when they come in contact with one another. Water is not a good solvent for nonpolar molecules, such as fats. A fat has no polar grups to interact with water molecules. An emulsifier, however, can cause a fat to disperse in water. An emulsifier contains molecules with both polar and nonpolar ends. When the nonpolar ends interact with the fat and the polar ends interact with the water molecule, the fat disperses in water, and an emulsion results.

Are lipids polar molecules?
no they are not, they are nonpolar molecules
What molecules are not attracted to polar molecules?
Nonpolar
What are the physical differences between polar and nonpolar molecules?
polarity... polar is the mid- range; nonpolar is the least polar.

What molecule would mix best with water?
Polar Molecules
A molecule with opposite charges on opposite ends?
It is called polar
Are all hydrocarbons polar molecules?
Hydrocarbons are nonpolar molecules.
