By now, you should have reviewed the lecture, taken the self-assessment and quiz. For this discussion activity, I want you to respond to the following topic in the Discussion area in this learning module. For this discussion activity Use the organic drug that was used in the module 7 discussion. Identify all intermolecular forces that the molecule can participate in with another identical molecule. Indicate whether the compound is water or fat/oil soluble. Explain. Solution Morphine is a polar molecule having three Oxygen atom and one Nitrogen atom.due to polar covalent bonds morphine molecules have intermolecular forces like 1)vanderwaal dispersion forces 2)dipole-dipole attraction 3)hydrogen bonding Although Morphine have polar bonds and have ability of hydrogen bonding but it is less soluble in water than fats because it\'s molecular size is large and only four atoms are able to make polar bond so water molecules can\'t surround it completely.so it is less soluble in water. .

discussion activity, I want you to respond to the following topic in the Discussion area in this
learning module. For this discussion activity Use the organic drug that was used in the module 7
discussion. Identify all intermolecular forces that the molecule can participate in with another
identical molecule. Indicate whether the compound is water or fat/oil soluble. Explain.
Solution
Morphine is a polar molecule having three Oxygen atom and one Nitrogen atom.due to polar
covalent bonds morphine molecules have intermolecular forces like
1)vanderwaal dispersion forces
2)dipole-dipole attraction
3)hydrogen bonding
Although Morphine have polar bonds and have ability of hydrogen bonding but it is less soluble
in water than fats because it's molecular size is large and only four atoms are able to make polar
bond so water molecules can't surround it completely.so it is less soluble in water.
