What are the two main parts of a triglyceride?
A head and a tail. The head is hydrophilic (polar) and the tail is hydrophobic (nonpolar) .
Which part of the cell membrane non-polar and prevents the cell from dissolving?
Nonpolar fatty acid chains are nonpolar and prevent the cell from dissolving.
What is an even charge distribution?
Nonpolar
The nonpolar end of a fatty acid is said to be?
Hydrophobic
Nonpolar solvents will most easily dissolve solids that are?
Covalent
Is soap polar nonpolar?
Soap is actually both. It is similar to a phospholipid in that it has a polar head and a nonpolar tail.
What are two parts of lipid?
A head and a tail. The head is hydrophilic (polar) and the tail is hydrophobic (nonpolar) .

A head and a tail. The head is hydrophilic (polar) and the tail is hydrophobic (nonpolar) .
What best describe the tail of a phospholipid molecule?
Neutral charge, nonpolar, and hydrophobic.
How does soap remove oil?
Water will dissolve anything that is polar but oil is nonpolar. It usually takes nonpolar liquids to dissolve a nonpolar substance. Soap molecules help with this because they have a polar head that interacts with water nicely and a nonpolar tail that interacts with things like oil. The end result is a drop of oil with a layer of soap floating around in the water.

Are lipids polar or nonpolar?
nonpolar or polar
What happens when a nonpolar solute is mixed in a nonpolar solvent?
The nonpolar solute is dissolved in the nonpolar solvent.
Is soap polar or non-polar?
Soap is actually both. It is similar to a phospholipid in that it has a polar head and a nonpolar tail.
Does the phospholipids contain a non polar component and a charged polar component?
Yes, they do. Phospholipids contain a hydrophilic (polar) head and a hydrophobic (nonpolar) tail. The hydrophilic (polar) head contains the phosphate groups, which account for the reason why the head is polar since each phoshpate has a net charge of -2. The tail consists of long chains of hydrocarbons, which are nonpolar/hydrophobic due to the symmetry of the chains.
Is Br2 a nonpolar covalent bond?
Yes, being symetrically.
Is triclosan polar or nonpolar?
nonpolar
