Question
Chapter 11.2, Problem 11.2YT
(a)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The line-angle drawing for palmitic acid has to be drawn.
Line-angle drawing:
- • The structure of a molecule can be represented using a line-angle drawing.
- • Each vertex is assumed to have one carbon atom.
- • If a line is extended from the backbone indicates another carbon atom which will be a methyl group unless the
symbol for another element is given. - • In line-angle drawing, hydrogen atoms are not indicated.
(b)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The functional group responsible for the acidic properties of fatty acids has to be named.
Concept introduction:
Fatty acids are aliphatic mono-carboxylic acids that are mostly obtained from the hydrolysis of natural fats and oils. They have a general formula
