Lipids are made up of long hydrocarbon chains and is not soluble in water.

Hence, Option C is correct answer.

<h3>What is Carbohydrates ? </h3>

Carbohydrate is water soluble macromolecule because they are small polar molecules contains many -OH functional groups that makes it hydrophilic.  

<h3>What is Nucleic acid ?</h3>

Nucleic acids are long polymeric chain. They are hydrophilic in nature. Nucleic acid are soluble in water because of their polar nature.

<h3>What is Lipids ? </h3>

Lipids are hydrophobic and they are generally water insoluble because lipids are non polar molecules. Lipids are oily or greasy molecules. Lipids are made up of glycerol molecule. It includes fatty acids.

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that Lipids are made up of long hydrocarbon chains and is not soluble in water.

Hence, Option C is correct answer.

The metallic radius of a potassium atom is 231 pm. What is the volume of a potassium atom in cubic meters?
Sauron [17]
1 pm = 10∧-10 cm
Therefore, 230 pm is equivalent to 2.3 ×10∧-8 cm.
Atom is in the shape of a sphere,
The volume of a sphere is given by 4/3πr³
Thus, volume of the atom = 4/3π( 2.3 ×10∧-8)³
                                          = 4/3 (3.142 ×12.167×10∧-24
                                           = 5.096 ×10∧-23 cm³
but 1m³= 1000000cm³
Therefore, the volume of the atom = 5.096 ×10∧-29 m³
