What else can I help you with?
Is the molecule nonpolar and hydrophobic or hydrophilic?
The molecule is nonpolar and hydrophobic.
He fatty acids in the tail of a phospholipid molecule are?
This is called the hydrophobic 'side' of the phospholipid molecule
What does hydrophilic mean and how do you determine if a molecule is hydrophilic or hydrophobic?
Hydrophilic, or 'water loving' refers to molecules that are easily miscible in water. Polar molecules and ionic compounds are generally hydrophilic, and non-polar molecules are generally hydrophobic.See the Related Questions to the left for more information about how to determine if a molecule is non-polar, polar, or ionic.
Is a hydrophobic molecule more likely to be polar or nonpolar?
A hydrophobic molecule is more likely to be nonpolar.
Is the molecule polar and hydrophilic or hydrophobic?
The polarity of a molecule determines whether it is hydrophilic (attracted to water) or hydrophobic (repelled by water). If a molecule is polar, it is typically hydrophilic, meaning it can dissolve in water. If a molecule is nonpolar, it is usually hydrophobic and does not mix well with water.

What are the properties of a molecule that is both hydrophobic and polar?
A molecule that is both hydrophobic and polar has a nonpolar region that repels water (hydrophobic) and a polar region that interacts with water (polar). This unique combination of properties allows the molecule to dissolve in both water and nonpolar solvents.
Which part of a phospolipid molecule is hydrophobic?
The lipid tails of a phospholipid molecule are hydrophobic, as they consist of nonpolar fatty acid chains that repel water.
What is the important functional group?
Functional groups help to determine how the molecule reacts. For instance, if a carbon chain has a large number of methyl groups, then you would know that the molecule would be hydrophobic and found in a hydrophobic environment. On the other hand, if a carbon chain had a carboxyl group, then it would be found in a hydrophilic environment and would make the solution acidic. In addition to determine what kind of solutions they would be found in, functional groups indicate what the molecule will react with and what it will bind to.
