Why do fat droplets float rather than mix with water?

Fat droplets are hydrophobic, meaning they do not mix well with water due to their chemical composition. The hydrophobic nature of fats causes them to repel water molecules, leading them to clump together and float on the surface of water. This phenomenon is known as the immiscibility of fats and water.


How do fats help in sport?

They don't. Unless you are swimming, they may help you float.


What type of molecules float in water?

Non-polar molecules are more likely to float in water because they are hydrophobic (water-repelling) and do not readily mix with water. Examples include oil, fats, and waxes. Due to the lack of polarity, these molecules are less dense than water and tend to float on its surface.

Why is emulsification of fats is necessary?

Emulsification of fats is necessary because a fat globule has large surface area for enzymes to act upon it. Emulsification reduces the surface area and then more enzymes can act upon it and thus can produce more energy.

Why must gallbladder release bile?

Bile contains bile slats that help in the process of emulsification of fats without which fats cannot be digested. emulsification of fats also increases the surface area of the fat malecules for lipase to act on.
