Hydrophobic compounds
Nonpolar organic molecules are good examples of compounds that do not readily dissolve in water due to their lack of charge separation. Examples include hydrocarbons like fats, oils, and waxes, as well as other nonpolar molecules like benzene and methane.
Lipids, such as fats and oils, do not dissolve in water because they are nonpolar molecules. Water is a polar molecule, and oil is nonpolar, so they are not compatible and do not mix. This property of lipids is essential for their function in the body, such as forming cell membranes and storing energy.
Fat molecules. Water molecule is polar, and therefore water is a good solvent for other polar molecules, dissolving them when they come in contact with one another. Water is not a good solvent for nonpolar molecules, such as fats. A fat has no polar grups to interact with water molecules. An emulsifier, however, can cause a fat to disperse in water. An emulsifier contains molecules with both polar and nonpolar ends. When the nonpolar ends interact with the fat and the polar ends interact with the water molecule, the fat disperses in water, and an emulsion results.
The building blocks of organic molecules are like bricks because they are the foundation. Basic organic molecules are similar to bricks because you need them to build upon.
Water molecules are attracted to each other with some very strong forces, like hydrogen bonding and dipole-dipole attractions. Those attractions lower the energy of the water molecules and make their interactions very favorable (which is why water has such a high melting and boiling point). To dissolve an organic molecule (or any molecule for that matter) into water, you need to physically separate these water molecules from each other to carve out space for the molecules to reside. This means breaking up some of these really favorable hydrogen bonding and dipole-dipole interactions. The only way this is going to happen is if the interactions the water molecules have with the organic molecules are as good if not better than the interactions the water molecules were having with each other. Those organic molecules that can form hydrogen bonds and/or are polar tend to be soluble in water because they can replace the nice interactions between the water molecules. Those organic molecules that are non-polar or are really big and partially non-polar will not be able to replace the happy water-water interactions and so will be excluded (i.e. sit in a layer on top of the water). Ironically, from an energy standpoint, the organic molecules would love to hang out with the water molecules and benefit from their strong dipoles, but just like nerds at a party full of "cool kids" are excluded from those interactions because they cannot reciprocate with a strong dipole of their own.
Toluene is not a good conductor of electricity.
Yes, halogens such as chlorine, bromine, and iodine are typically soluble in organic solvents due to their nonpolar nature. This makes them good candidates for extraction and purification processes in organic chemistry. However, the solubility can vary depending on the specific halogen and solvent being used.
Organic foods with future potential include almost all fruits and vegetables. Organic baby foods are especially desirable, as mothers are increasingly turning to organic producers to feed their babies.
Carbon is a good element for organic molecules because of its incredible versatility, which derives from the arrangement of its valence electrons and the type and energy level of the bonds they form.
Alcohol is miscible in water because they both have similar properties.A good rule of thumb is "like dissolves like"For example, water, which consists of polar molecules, is not miscible in oil, because oil consists of nonpolar hydrocarbon chain molecules.
A good background in inorganic and organic chemistry is required for biomedical engineering. After accomplishing study in inorganic chemistry, one must obtain a solid understanding of how organic carbon and other molecules comprise the essential structures of life molecules. Organic chemistry enables one to study the activities of different micro-bodies.
Most of the organic molecules have good bit of number of carbons in it.An organic molecule having carbon, Hydrogen and oxygen is called ether.An organic molecule having carbon, hydrogen and Nitrogen is called amines.All organic compounds have carbon and hydrogen in them, the compound needs both carbon and hydrogen to be organic.
