we tested this in school today. it is an emulsifier but it didnt work too well in our experiment, the best was egg yolk! lol but yeah it is an emulsifier.
--edit--
Lecithin is an emulsifier.. and what is said above doesn't quite make sense, because lecithin is in egg yolk.
Cholesterol and lecithin are both types of lipids that are important components of cell membranes. They both have a hydrophobic (water-insoluble) tail and a hydrophilic (water-soluble) head, allowing them to form lipid bilayers in cell membranes. Additionally, both cholesterol and lecithin play essential roles in cell signaling and membrane fluidity.
Soaps made from coconut oil contain water-soluble salts of fatty acids, which allows them to easily dissolve in water. This is due to the structure of the molecules in the soap, which have both hydrophilic (water-attracting) and hydrophobic (water-repelling) properties, enabling them to form stable emulsions in water.
To convert granule lecithin to liquid lecithin, you can simply add water and heat the mixture gently until the granules dissolve completely. This will help break down the granules and turn them into a liquid form that is easier to use in recipes.
Siderite is not soluble in water.
Diphenylamine is only slightly soluble in water, but more soluble in polar organic solvents.
Yes, lecithin is soluble in methylene chloride. Methylene chloride is a common organic solvent that can dissolve lipids such as lecithin, which is a phospholipid compound.
Cholesterol is only partly soluble in water. Cholesterol is a lipid (fat) which in water at room temperature, most fats are mostly insoluble in water. At higher temperatures fats are slightly more soluble.

Lecithin is an emulsifier that allows fat and water to mix. Typically it is added to foods as a thickening agent.

Water soluble.
fat soluble vitamins are stored in our fat tissues and water soluble vitamins are soluble in water.
Water soluble.
Folate is water soluble.
Magnesium is water soluble.
water- soluble
minerals are usually water soluble
