good I realize this concept a hydrophobic hydrophilic interactions
kinda oddd but you've actually seen this before especially if you
like salads with Italian dressing what we have here
is the bottle of oil and vinegar the
oils on the top the vinegars on the bottom and what happened is that the
hydrophobic aspect to the oil
as actually pushed itself away from the all
hydrophilic water in the vinegar in it separated very clearly
so now you know what I'm going to do
I'm going to shake this bottle to see what happens
you can see even with momentary shaking there is
some mixing but thats actually
only temporary you can see already down at the bottom
the oil is starting to separate from
these hydrophobic hydrophilic interactions seem very weak but as you
can see
that amount of oil is beging pushed
by the water backup on top
and now you can see, this is literally
after only about 3 to 4 minutes of
set time you can see that the oils are almost all the way
removed from within
I expect that you think that I'm going to take this
and mix it up again in pour it on a salad
but I don't really like them. Those are just bunch of hamster food.
so isn't it odd something as flimsy as this soap bubble has
inferences into how
cytoplasmic membrane functions. Now in reference to
oil versus vinegar, who wins?
well I think it's a tie. They are both important.
