Question

Define entropic effects or hydrophobic interactions in ribosomes

Answer 1

The hydrophobic effect describes the energetic preference of nonpolar molecular surfaces to interact with other nonpolar molecular surfaces and thereby to displace water molecules from the interacting surfaces. The hydrophobic effect is due to both enthalpic and entropic effects..

Answer 2

Answer:

The hydrophobic effect was found to be entropy-driven at room temperature because of the reduced mobility of water molecules in the solvation shell of the non-polar solute; however, the enthalpic component of transfer energy was found to be favorable, meaning it strengthened water-water hydrogen bonds in the solvation
