Yes, water is considered hydrophilic because it has a strong attraction to other substances, allowing it to easily mix and dissolve with them.
Ammonia is a polar molecule that can form hydrogen bonds with water molecules, so it is considered hydrophilic (water-loving) rather than hydrophobic (water-fearing).
Hydrophilic means that a substance has an affinity for/attraction to water. It binds with water easily. [It is the opposite of hydrophobic, where a substance has an aversion for water. It forms droplets in water (like oil).]
Silica is hydrophilic, meaning it has an affinity for water and tends to absorb or attract water molecules.
Cysteine is considered hydrophilic in terms of its chemical properties.
Yes, it is true that hydrophilic substances are soluble in water. Hydrophilic substances have an affinity for water and can easily dissolve in it.
Polar molecules are generally considered to be hydrophilic, meaning they are attracted to water and can dissolve in it.

The plasma membrane is made up of phospholipids, which each have a hydrophilic tail and a hydrophobic head. They will create two layers with the heads facing each other and the tails facing out. So the inside of the plasma membrane is hydrophobic while the outsides are hydrophilic.
Silica is hydrophilic, meaning it has an affinity for water and tends to absorb or attract water molecules.
Cysteine is considered hydrophilic in terms of its chemical properties.
Yes, it is true that hydrophilic substances are soluble in water. Hydrophilic substances have an affinity for water and can easily dissolve in it.
N-H bonds are typically considered hydrophilic due to the electronegativity difference between nitrogen and hydrogen, leading to partial charges on the atoms and the ability to form hydrogen bonds with water molecules.
DNA is considered to be a hydrophilic molecule because of its structure and composition. The phosphate backbone of DNA contains polar covalent bonds that interact favorably with water molecules, making it water-soluble and capable of forming hydrogen bonds with water.
Yes, ethanol is considered hydrophilic because it can dissolve in water due to its ability to form hydrogen bonds with water molecules. Ethanol is also commonly used as a solvent in various chemical reactions and processes because of its hydrophilic nature.
Water is considered hydrophilic because it has polar molecules that can interact with other polar substances, allowing it to dissolve many ionic and polar compounds. Its ability to form hydrogen bonds with other molecules enhances its interactions with hydrophilic substances. In contrast, hydrophobic substances do not mix well with water due to their nonpolar nature.
Soap is both hydrophobic and hydrophilic. It has a hydrophobic tail that repels water and a hydrophilic head that attracts water, allowing it to interact with both water and oils.
