29) The molecular interaction called “hydrophobic effect" is best described as: A) The attractive force between non-polar molecules. B) The tendency of non-polar molecules to avoid interactions with water and thus aggregate. C) The interaction between two charged molecules. D) The ability of non-polar solvents to dissolve hydrophobic compounds.

Read and answer the ff queries: 1.) Arrange ice, liquid water, or water vapor according to their decreasing strength of intermolecular forces. Explain why are they arranged like that. 2.) What is amphiphilic substance? What special properties do they have that strictly polar or strictly nonpolar substances lack? Give three examples of amphiphilic substances. 3.) While there is nothing wrong in using room temperature or cold water to wash and rinse dishesand utensils, how is it that using hot (but not really boiled) water effectively removes the grease and stains attached to the dishes and utensils?

Intramolecular forces of attraction are often important in holding large molecules together. For example, some proteins fold into compact shapes, held together by attractive forces between nearby functional groups. A schematic of a folded protein is drawn here, with the protein backbone indicated by a blue-green ribbon, and various appendages drawn dangling from the chain. What types of intramolecular forces occur at each labeled site (A–F)?
