Question

Surfactant molecules form micelles in aqueous solution, which:

• A. tend to congregate due to their hydorphobic tails
• B. are colloidal-sized cluster of molecules
• C. provide protection due to their hydrophobic head
• D. none of the above

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B), (C)

tend to congregate due to their hydorphobic tails
provide protection due to their hydrophobic head
are colloidal-sized cluster of molecules

$\text{Surfactant molecules have tendency to congregate due to their hydrphobi tails.}$

$\text{Surfactant molecules have cluster size colloidal molecues.}$

$\text{Surfactant molecules provide protection due to their hydrophobic head by forming micelles in aqueous solution.}$
