Entropy is the degree of randomness or disorderness of a system , so forming a ordered network will decrease the entropy of water.
And the molecules that lack polar groups cannot readily form micelles as it is the polarity that orients the hydrocarbon chain into micelles , so without the polar groups , it would be difficult.
Nonpolar molecules that have no polar groups (e.g. hydrocarbons) can readily form micelles.

Amphiphilic molecules, such as phospholipids spontaneously form micelles/vesicles in water because: a) The entropy of the detergent increases b) The enthalpy overcomes the entropy c) The entropy of water increases d) The change in free energy is positive e) When water interacts with the hydrophobic groups in the detergent, the water becomes less ordered Question 2: Which of the following reactions represent a deamination reaction? S + 2H + 2e c) H2CO3 + H20 = H30+ + HCO3 но нR...
defend or refute.... Ionic compounds are soluble in water because of the large decrease in entropy that occurs upon mixing. I think we are refuting this statement but i'm not really sure why. please explain!
Why does acetic acid form ions when dissolved in water but not when it is in the pure (glacial) form? Why or why not?
How does the entropy of the system change when: a.) the temperature of the system increases b.) the volume of a gas increases c.) equal volumes of ethanol and water are mixed to form a solution Please provide why it increases or decreases.
Why does octanol has higher bouling point than water? I belive that water can form 4 H bonds and more polar than octanol. So I expected to see higher boiling point for water. But actually, octanol has higher boiling point than water. Does it imply that octanol has stringer intermolecular force? If so, could anyone explain why?
Why does NaBr dissolve in water? View Available Hint(s) because of strong hydrogen-bonding interactions between NaBr and water because of strong ion-dipole forces because of strong dipole-dipole interactions between NaBr and water because of strong dispersion forces between NaBr and water

Problem 6.7. Entropy as an extensive quantity (a) Because the entropy is an extensive quantity, we know that if we double the volume and double the number of particles (thus keeping the density constant), the entropy must double. This condition can be written formally as S(T, WV, AN) = AS(T,V, N). (6.30 Although this behavior of the entropy is completely general, there is no guarantee that an approximate calculation of S will satisfy this condition. Show that the...
QUESTION 8 When phospholipids are mixed with water, they spontaneously form lipid bilayers. Why is this energetically favorable A. None of these answers are correct B. Hydrogen bonds form between neighboring polar head groups of phospholipids, drawing them together. C. Van der Waals interactions between the hydrocarbon chains are stronger than hydrogen bonding interactions. D. Water molecules would otherwise form cage-like structures around the hydrocarbon chains, decreasing entropy. E. All of these answers are correct
