What is the best way to describe a phospholipid?
a lipid molecule with a polar head and tail.
Does the polar head of a phospholipid have a polar end containing glycerol?
The polar end of the molecule is soluble in water (hydrophilic) and water solutions (including cytoplasm); the other, fatty-acid end is soluble in fats(hydrophobic).Read more: phospholipid
Is isopropyl alcohol more polar than glucose?
Yes, Isopropyl Alcohol is a Polar Molecule.
What part of the phospholipid polar?
The head is polar
The characteristics that best describe the tail of a phospholipid molecule are .?
I would describe the characteristics of the tail of a phospholipid molecule would be mosaic of lipid molecules. The process of theses cells are talked and learnt in science.
A phospholipid molecule has a polar and a nonpolar end because of this water molecules form what kind of bond?
hydrogen bonds with the polar end of the phospholipid molecule
What molecule is the polar head of a phospholipid made of?
Phosphate molecules.
Are fatty acid tails of a phospholipid molecules polar?
This is called the hydrophobic 'side' of the phospholipid molecule
The water soluble portion of a phospholipid is the polar head which generally consists of a glycerol molecule linked to a phosphate group?
No, you do not have that quite correct. A Phospholipid molecule has one end that is hydrophilic (is attracted to water) while the other end is hydrophobic (is repelled water but is attracted to fats).

A molecule with a polar head and two non polar tails?
Lipids, man!Could be the phospholipid bilayer of a cell membrane to be more specific.phospholipidSoap and detergent molecules have a polar head and nonpolar tail to help dissolve an dwash off dirt and oil.

Is isopropyl alcohol more polar than glucose?
Yes, Isopropyl Alcohol is a Polar Molecule.
Is the phospholipid molecule has two parts the polar end and the bipolar end?
No, you do not have that quite correct. A Phospholipid molecule has one end that is hydrophilic (is attracted to water) while the other end is hydrophobic (is repelled water but is attracted to fats).
Is glucose soluble in hydrochloric acid?
Yes, glucose is a polar molecule that is able to dissolve in aqueous HCl.
What part of the phospholipid polar?
The head is polar
Is glucose hydrophobic?
GLUCOSE IS VERY DEFINITELY POLAR WITH OH (HYDROXYL) GROUPS ALL OVER IT, WHICH ARE THEMSELVES VERY POLAR. THE MOLECULE IS ALSO VERY UNSYMMETRICAL WHICH TENDS TO MAKE IT POLAR. THE FACT THAT GLUCOSE IS EXTREMELY SOLUBLE IN WATER (ANOTHER POLAR SUBSTANCE) SHOWS THAT GLUCOSE IS POLAR SINCE "POLAR DISSOLVES IN POLAR" AND "NONPOLAR DISSOLVES IN NONPOLAR" (LIKE WAX AND GASOLINE)
