A. Using the concept of bond polarity and solubility, explain why water (H;O) and vinegar are miscible, but vinegar and oil are immiscible. B. Using the concept of intermolecular forces of attraction, explain why butter melts at room temperature but solidifies when refrigerated. C. Explain the importance polarity of molecules to biological processes such as in the structure of proteins and phospholipids.
