You have discovered a new molecule in outer space. You have never seen this type of molecule before on Earth. You analyze the composition and discover that it is made of 28% carbon atoms, 24% oxygen atoms, and 48% hydrogen atoms.   You immediately decide that it is not an alien protein or an alien nucleotide. Explain why you know that the molecule cannot be a protein or a nucleotide.  Do you think that the molecule is an alien fatty acid or an alien carbohydrate? Explain your decision Will your molecule be hydrophilic or hydrophobic? Explain your answer considering polarity and electronegativity
