(a)
Interpretation:
The structure of two possible products formed by hydrogenation of linolenic acid with one equivalent H2 in the presence of Pd catalyst should be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Lipids are
(b)
Interpretation:
The structure of the productformed from complete hydrogenation of linolenic acid should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Lipids are biomolecules that are involved in different biochemical reactions. They are special types of organic molecules that can only identify with the help of their physical properties and not by the presence of any certain functional group. In general, lipids contain a large number of C-C and C-H bonds with few polar functional groups such as −OH, -SH, etc.For example, triacylglycerol consists of three ester groups, whereas, Vitamin E is composed of both ether and phenolic groups.

- Write structural formulas for the products formed in each of the following reactions, and categorize the type of reaction involved (a) CH3CH2CHO + (O) → (b) CH3CH=CH2 + HBr →arrow_forwardEthers (general formula R—O—R)have many important uses. Until recently,methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE, right)was used as an octane booster and fueladditive for gasoline. It increases the oxy-gen content of the fuel, which reducesCO emissions. MTBE is synthesized bythe catalyzed reaction of 2-methylpropene with methanol.(a) Write a balanced equation for the synthesis of MTBE. (Hint:Alcohols add to alkenes similarly to the way water does.)(b) If the government required that auto fuel mixtures contain2.7% oxygen by mass to reduce CO emissions, how many gramsof MTBE would have to be added to each 100. g of gasoline?(c) How many liters of MTBE would be in each liter of fuel mix-ture? (The density of both gasoline and MTBE is 0.740 g/mL.)(d) How many liters of air (21% O₂ by volume) are needed at24C and 1.00 atm to fully combust 1.00 L of MTBE?arrow_forwardA)What is the IUPAC name for the product when hept-2-yne is reacted with two units of hydrogen gas over a platinum catalyst?B)In the complete combustion of octane the balanced reaction has one mole of the hydrocarbon.
