water would not be able to form hydrogen bonds (wrong)
Apex - Water would not rise inside plants :P

Water and motor oil are immiscible because they have different polarities. Water is a polar molecule, while motor oil is nonpolar. This difference in polarity prevents water from dissolving motor oil.
Nonpolar substances do not dissolve in water because water is a polar molecule. Therefore, nonpolar substances do not readily get wet in water and tend to form beads on the surface instead. This is due to the difference in polarity between water and nonpolar substances.

water would not be able to climb up inside plants Apex
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.
A nonpolar liquid cannot dissolve polar molecules.
Water and oil have different properties because they are made up of different molecules. Water is a polar molecule, meaning it has a positive and negative end, which allows it to dissolve other polar substances. Oil, on the other hand, is a nonpolar molecule, so it does not mix well with water. This difference in molecular structure leads to their distinct behaviors and properties.
I will assume Hsub2O is H2O [water] Water is a polar molecule.

Molecules with polar hydrophobic properties have a nonpolar region that repels water and a polar region that interacts with water. This creates a molecule that is both attracted to and repelled by water, making it hydrophobic.
A nonpolar liquid cannot dissolve polar molecules.
Nonpolar molecules are generally not soluble in water because water is a polar molecule and like dissolves like.
A molecule is polar if it has a positive and negative end, while being hydrophobic means it repels water. To be both polar and hydrophobic, a molecule must have a polar region that interacts with water and a nonpolar region that repels water. This dual nature allows the molecule to be both attracted to and repelled by water.
It is polar because it is asymmetrical
