Is ethanol hydrophilic or hydrophobic?

Ethanol is both hydrophilic and hydrophobic. Its hydroxyl (-OH) group makes it hydrophilic, allowing it to dissolve in water. However, its hydrocarbon chain makes it hydrophobic, meaning it can also dissolve nonpolar substances.


Why hydrophilic proteins when placed in hydrophobic solvent their is denaturation of the proteins?

Hydrophilic molecules are repulsed by surrounding hydrophobic solvent. Hydrophilic tends to connect with hydrophilic, and hydrophobic with hydrophobic. If the protein as a part which is hydrophobic, then it will twist itself to accommodate those new connections, and when they change their form, they denature.


On a phospholipid which part is hydrophobic?

The substance that forms the hydrophobic tail on the back end of a phospholipid are fatty acids. Phospholipids are not "true fats" as they have a phosphate group that replaces one of the fatty acids

What properties of DNA are responsible for its precipitation in alcohol?

DNA precipitates in alcohol due to its hydrophobic nature and the presence of phosphate groups that interact with alcohol molecules. When DNA is mixed with alcohol, the hydrophobic regions of the DNA interact with the alcohol molecules, causing the DNA to clump together and precipitate out of solution. Additionally, the negatively charged phosphate groups on the DNA backbone can form interactions with the positively charged ions present in alcohol, further promoting DNA precipitation.

Lipids are not dissolving,. They have a hydrophobic part


What part of phospholipid is not attracted to water?

That would be the hydrophobic lipid tail.


Which part of a phospolipid molecule is hydrophobic?
