Question
Chapter 25.10, Problem 12P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The number of carbon atoms in citronellal that would be radioactively labeled if the acetic acid used were enriched with
Concept Introduction:
Reaction pathways can be studied using compounds containing radioactively labeled carbons, and studying how many such atoms are incorporated in the product and at which locations.
Plants grown in a medium containing radioactively labeled acetic acid incorporate the radioactive atoms in the compounds they synthesize.

what is the heat combustion of C2H5OH at 25C?
You are given 150 mL of an oil made up of a mixture of 3 fatty acids:
palmitoleic acid (C 16:1 (n-7))
erucic acid (C 22:1 (n-9))
stearidonic acid (C 18:4 (n-3))
You know that the 150 mL sample of this oil was prepared by adding 60 mL of palmitoleic acid to 90 mL of a mixture of erucic acid and stearidonic acid.
Using a hydrometer you carefully measure the density of the 150 mL sample of oil and your analysis indicates that it has a density of 0.900 g/cm3.
The densities of the individual fatty acids are:
palmitoleic acid = 0.894 g/cm3
erucic acid = 0.860 g/cm3
stearidonic acid = 0.9334 g/cm3
Can you determine the volumes (in mL) of erucic acid and stearidonic acid in the total volume (150 mL) of the oil mixture?
