some please help answer the question circle!!
14 eu are provided with 2 solvents: Water (HoO) and Hevane (CHC CH CH C,CH) ou are also provided with 2 biological molecules whose structures are shown below: HO-C-H CH OH Predict which biological molecule would be more soluble in water and which would be more soluble in hexane. Defend your prediction. One sentence or two will suffice 2 points) - cauv of he mamy tarbony What functional group(s) is(are) present in each biological molecule? (2 points). - Consider the digestion of dietary molecules in the digestive tract. Which of the 2 biological molecules shown in this problem would be more easily digested under the conditions present in the digestive tract? (2 points). -Explanation / Answer
Solublity
The structure A is having more number of OH group therefore it is more polar and is high abilitity for hydrogen bonding therefore compound A is solube in water.
Compound B having the long non-polar hydrocarban chain therefore it more soluble in non-polar solvent like hexane.
Funcrional group in compound A
OH (hydroxyl group) and CHO (aldehyde group)
Functional groups in compound B
Ester group.
Digestion
The compound A is carbohydrate it easily under go the reduction to produce energy in the digestive track than the compound B.
The compound A is having more number of OH group which will undergo digestion very fastly because it highly soluble in digestive track but compound B is least soluble.
