N-Octanol and water are chosen because the connection between a substance's hydrophilicity and lipophilicity is measured by
(n-Octanol/Water partition coefficient). When a chemical is more dissolves in fat-like solvents like n-octanol, the value is more significant than one, when it's more dissolved in water, the value is lower.
What is the partition coefficient?
- The partition coefficient for the two-phase network comprising n-octanol and water is known as the
value. N-Octanol-Water Partition Ratio is another name for it.
- The connection between a substance's hydrophilicity (its ability to dissolve in water) and lipophilicity (its ability to dissolve in fat) is measured by
. The value is bigger if a drug is more accessible in fat-like liquids like n-octanol and less if a compound seems more water-soluble.
- Owing to linkage or fragmentation, substances that are involved in the octanol-water combination as multiple synthetic entities are each given a unique
ratio.
So, N-Octanol is chosen because it has a carbon/oxygen ratio that is comparable to that of lipids and because it shows both hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties. N-octanol, therefore, resembles the makeup and characteristics of cells and other living things.

Answer:
Open spaces in water's solid structure makes its solid state less dense than its liquid state.
Explanation:
- Water unlike other liquids is special. It contracts when cooled, down to a temperature of 4°C but thereafter begins to expand as it reaches 0°C and turns into ice.
- This property is useful for the preservation of marine life in very cold temperatures. During winter, the surface water in water lakes and rivers starts cooling. Upon reaching the temperature of 4°C, the surface water descends to the bottom as it denser.
- This help in the maintenance of temperature of the water at the bottom at 4°C. It is in this layer that marine life is sustained.
Answer:
The electron configuration for this atom is Calcium, which has 2 valence electrons.
Explanation:
Following the periodic table and with the electron configuration, you will end up with calcium, which has 2 valence electrons. (Always follow the electron configuration from left to right! It begins at hydrogen, then to helium... and so on.)
1s2 -> He....
2s2 -> Be....
2p6 -> Ne...
3s2 -> Mg...
3p6 -> Ar...
4s2 -> Ca.
