Question
Chapter 13.4, Problem 13.10P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The compound that is more soluble in water has to be identified between arachidonic acid and prostaglandin
Concept Introduction:
Polar molecules dissolve more in water as water is polar solvent. Nonpolar molecules do not dissolve in water. This is based on “Like dissolves like” principle. If the compound contains more number of polar groups, then it is said to be more soluble in water.
