More soluble in fat, as it has only one small polar group (OH). The rest of the molecule is non-polar and would therefore more readily dissolve in fat.

Sea water has about 0.46 moles NaCl and 0.065 moles of MgCl2 in every litre. What is the vapour pressure of sea water at 30?C if pure water would have a vapour pressure of 33.2 mm Hg? (Assume there are 1000 grams of water in 1 litre of sea water.)
