An emulsifying agent is typically characterized by having d. one polar end and one nonpolar end.

Explanation:

Emulsifiers are substances that have the ability to bind, for example, fats with those substances that have mostly water in their conformation. In other words, the emulsifier facilitates mixtures of two or more immiscible liquid substances.

This is because the molecules of an emulsifier are often lipophilic (attract oil) at one end and hydrophilic (attract water) at the other. In other words it consists of a polar (hydrophilic) head group and a non-polar (hydrophobic) tail.

An emulsifying agent is typically characterized by having d. one polar end and one nonpolar end.
