Students have asked these similar questions
There are structural differences between saturated fatty acids, cis-unsaturated fatty acids, and
trans-unsaturated fatty acids.
• Why have some cities banned the use of trans-unsaturated fatty acids at restaurants?
Trans-unsaturated fatty acids stack like unsaturated fatty acids and cost more energy to metabolize,
making it substantially more dangerous to consume.
Trans-unsaturated fatty acids stack like saturated fatty acids and cost more energy to metabolize,
making it substantially more dangerous to consume.
Trans-unsaturated fatty acids stack like saturated fatty acids and cost less energy to metabolize, making
it substantially more dangerous to consume.
None of the other answers are correct.
O Trans-unsaturated fatty acids stack like unsaturated fatty acids and cost less energy to metabolize,
making it substantially more dangerous to consume.
When a carbon chain length of a fatty acid increases, which of the following occurs? And why?
a) its polarity decreases as its solubility in water increases
b) its polarity increases as its solubility in water decreases
c) its polarity increases as its solubility in water increases
d) its polarity decreases as its solubility in water decreases
Arrange the fatty acids from highest melting point to lowest melting point.
- CH3(CH2)10COOH
- CH3(CH2)7CH=CH(CH2)7COOH
- CH3(CH2)4(CH=CHCH2)4(CH2)2COOH
- CH3(CH2)14COOH
Select the statements about fatty acid melting points that are true.
- A saturated fatty acid with a greater molar mass has a higher melting point than a saturated fatty acid with a lower molar mass.
- A saturated fatty acid with a greater molar mass has a lower melting point than a saturated fatty acid with a lower molar mass.
- A saturated fatty acid has a higher melting point than an unsaturated fatty acid.
- A saturated fatty acid has a lower melting point than an unsaturated fatty acid.

- + Question 19 of 23 Would you expect a saturated or an unsaturated fatty acid to have more dispersion forces between molecules of the same type, and why? A) Saturated, because they have more carboxylic acid groups. B) Saturated, because they more naturally stack, so there are more areas where dispersion forces can occur. C) Saturated, because the single carbon bonds are stronger than the double carbon bonds in unsaturated fatty acids. D) Unsaturated, because the double carbon bonds are stronger than the single carbon bonds in saturated fatty acids. E) Unsaturated, because double carbon bonds will interact with other double bonds in a strong dispersion force. acerarrow_forwardLSaxw_byUjt4NKKTEABPFImknTAVIxeSATH3-MO9AEbrFOXuga ponse TUIse The structure of glycogen is very similar to that of amylose Secondary alcohols are readily oxidized with common oxidizing agents to carboxylic acids Amines react with strong acids such as HCI, to form ammonium salts In general, oils come from animal sources and fats from vegetable sources Amines are weak bases, they are considerably more basic than alcohols, and water Carboxylic acids are less acidic than alcohols Steroids are lipids that do not contain fatty acids Alkylamines have boiling points are higher than those of alkanes, but lower than those of alcohols 4- Tio druck & 1 8. 9.
