To determine if something is polar, you can look at its molecular structure and check if it has polar bonds or an uneven distribution of charge. If the molecule has polar bonds or an uneven distribution of charge, it is considered polar.

What does it mean when a lipid is non-polar?

There isn't exactly something known as a non-polar lipid. A lipid consists of a polar phosphate 'head' and a non-polar hydrocarbon 'tail'. When something is 'polar', it means that that the charges between a compound aren't shared equally. For example, in water (H2O), H has a slightly positive charge while O has a slightly negative charge. Since the 'head' of the lipid is polar, it attracts H2O molecules and so it is hydrophilic. On the other hand, the 'tail' of the lipid is non-polar, hence it is hydrophobic.


What is the relation of non-polar and polar in water?

In water, a polar molecule, the non-polar molecules are generally not miscible or soluble. Due to differences in polarity, they tend to separate rather than mix. This can be seen when oil, a non-polar substance, does not readily dissolve in water, a polar substance.


What is the Difference between opposite and polar opposite?

Opposite by definition; " Having a position on the other or further side of something." Polar opposite, is essentially the opposite of something that is of the further* side. Ergo, all polar opposites are opposites, but not all opposites are polar. For example: Word: Famous (Known about by many people) A polar opposite: Infamous (Well known for some bad quality or deed) Ordinary opposite Unknown (Not known or familiar) In summary, a polar opposite, is an opposite of the word within the same 'field' if you will.


What is the polar opposite of frogs?

The polar opposite of frogs could be something like desert creatures, such as scorpions or snakes, as they inhabit different environments and have different characteristics.
