a insoluble molecule is when the food is to big to digest so it turns into a small soluble molecule.
Hydrophobic molecules are insoluble in water. These include oils and grease.

Sterols are a type of lipid molecule found in cell membranes. They are important for regulating membrane fluidity and permeability. One common sterol in animals is cholesterol.
Chitin is an unbranched polymer of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine and is a derivative of cellulose. It can be described as cellulose with one OH group on each monomer substituted with an acetyl amide group. This results in increased hydrogen bonding between the monomers giving chitin-polymer complex increased strength. Due to this increased hydrogen bonding there no free available OH groups to hydrogen bond with water. Therefore resulting in chitin being in soluble in water.
Large insoluble molecules get broken down into smaller soluble molecules through processes like digestion, hydrolysis, or decomposition. This allows the body to absorb and utilize the essential nutrients present in these molecules.
- large insoluble molecule - wont affect water potential - relatively compact - wont be used up in reactions as its insoluble
1-decanol is insoluble in water because it is a nonpolar molecule due to its long hydrophobic alkyl chain. Water is a polar molecule, so it cannot effectively interact with the nonpolar decanol molecules, leading to minimal solubility.
The type of organic molecule that repels water is a lipid. It is an non-polar compound and is generally insoluble in water.
Olive oil, gasoline, kerosine, lard, peanut oil. Any nonpolar molecule, really.
C6H14, which is the chemical formula for hexane, is not soluble in water because it is a nonpolar molecule. Water is a polar molecule, and nonpolar molecules like hexane do not readily dissolve in polar solvents like water.
Cellulose is insoluble in chloroform. It is a polar molecule and chloroform is nonpolar, which results in poor solubility between the two substances.
Olive oil, gasoline, kerosine, lard, peanut oil. Any nonpolar molecule, really.
At least some portion of the molecule is hydrophobic. A+
Chlorophyll is insoluble in water because it is a non-polar molecule, meaning it does not have a charge separation and cannot form hydrogen bonds with water molecules. Instead, chlorophyll is soluble in non-polar solvents like oils and lipids due to its hydrophobic nature.
INSOLUBLE
Sulfur is insoluble in water because it is a nonpolar molecule, while water is a polar solvent. In the case of petroleum ether, sulfur is also insoluble because it does not have a compatible polarity or chemical structure with the nonpolar solvent. This lack of solubility is due to the differences in the intermolecular forces between sulfur and the two solvents.
Toluene is an aromatic hydrocarbon and like all hydrocarbons is a non polar molecule. Water is a polar molecule. The rule of dissolving is that non polar cannot dissolve in polar
