← ScienceWhich consequence results when solvent accessible surface area increases?
A)Decreased hydrophobic effect stability
B)Reduced potential binding affinity
C)Increased molecular rotational entropy✓
D)Lowered rate of chain propagation
💡 Explanation
Increased surface area exposes more conformations. Rotational entropy increases because the molecule explores a larger solid angle; therefore, the entropy change favors unfolding, rather than other effects which depend upon specific contacts and interactions.
