yesNo it is a lipid. It has long hydro carbon chains with alcohol groups
Which solvent has the greatest lipid solubility Why do you think this?
The best lipid solvents are Hexane, Ethyl Alcohol and Methyl Alcohol. This is because lipids are nonpolar and hydrophobic. Hexane has the highest hydrophobicity of any solvent and is thus the best at dissolving hydrophobic molecules.
