Q

Phase I metabolism

A

typically uses CYP450
uses enzymes called oxidases to unmask or introduce polar groups (OH or O) on the drug

Q

Electronegativity

A

This is how polar molecules are created. Highly electronegative elements have a larger ratio of proton core so the core has a more positive charge. The shells have a more negative charge since they are filled with electrons. The strong positive core tends to pull and hog all the electrons from other less electronegative elements, such as hydrogen.

Q

Hydrogen bond

A

This is the strongest type of bond. It is based on electronegativity. Since oxygen is more electronegative, it will pull and hog all of the electrons from hydrogen. This makes water polar.

171
Q

Why is water polar?

A

When you look at the water molecule, the oxygen end is a more negative area and the hydrogen end is a more positive area.
Water is not an ion. It still has an overall neutral charge. To be an ion, water would have to completely lose or gain electrons. The oxygen and hydrogen are sharing electrons but oxygen is hogging most of the electrons.
