a. Do one or both contain aromatic rings? Which one(s)?
b. What is the longest straight carbon chain in either vitamin?
c. Write the chemical formula for each vitamin.
d. Would you consider these vitamins to be water-soluble or lipid-soluble? What characteristics or features support your answer?
e. Does your answer to the previous question agree with the following information? Vitamins Bs and B2 are known to be more easily expelled in urine and so they
need to be more frequently consumed in the diet or through supplements, unlike with vitamins A, D, E and K.
