Chemistry Question on Surface Chemistry
Position of non polar & polar part in miscell
A
Polar at outer surface but non polar at innersurface
B
Polar at inner surface non polar at outer surface
C
Distributed over all the surface
D
Are present in the surface only
Answer
Polar at outer surface but non polar at innersurface
Explanation
Solution
The correct option is (A) : Polar at outer surface but non polar at inner surface.
An assembly of surfactant molecules scattered in a liquid colloid is known as a micelle. Polar head groups,which typically make up the micelle's exterior surface, are present in micelles. Because they are polar, they face the ocean. Since they are non-polar, the hydrophobic tails are within and away from the water.
