Yes. Like carbohydrates, lipids also contain oxygen, hydrogen and carbon. But unlike COH, they have much fewer oxygen atoms. As a result lipids are said to be saturated with hydrogen atoms making the bonds between atoms non polar convalent. This means that lipids do not disolve in water. This property is know as being hydrophobic
The molecule is nonpolar.
No, polar solutes are generally not soluble in nonpolar solvents.
Artificial flavors can be either polar or nonpolar, depending on their chemical structure. Some artificial flavors may have polar functional groups (such as hydroxyl or carbonyl groups), making them polar molecules, while others may have nonpolar structures, making them nonpolar molecules.
Molecules with many polar bonds are soluble in polar solvents.Also, molecules with none or few polar bonds (many non-polar bonds) are soluble in non-polar solvent. e.g Water is a polar solvent so substances with many polar bonds are soluble in it.
C2H2 (Ethyne or Acetylene) is nonpolar because the molecule has a linear geometry with symmetric electronegativity, resulting in an equal distribution of charge and no net dipole moment.
The fatty acids of a triglyceride are nonpolar.
Nonpolar
nonpolar
No. Because the polar hydroxyls of glycerol and the polar carboxylates of the fatty acids are bound in ester linkages, triglycerides are nonpolar, hydrophobic molecules, that are essentially insoluble in water.

nonpolar. The fat molecules in peanut butter are nonpolar, that is why peanut butter doesn't evenly mix with water, a polar substance.
Polar substances dissolve other polar substances, and nonpolar substances dissolve other nonpolar substances. A polar substance cannot dissolve a polar substance and a nonpolar substance cannot dissolve a polar substance.
