Interpretation:
The constitution of the given material having the molecular formula
Concept Introduction:
>Ozonolysis of
If formaldehyde is produced after ozonolysis, it can be deduced that the alkene has a terminal double bond.
>If an aldehyde is produced after ozonolysis, at least one of the double bonded carbon atoms in the alkene has a hydrogen attached to it.
>If a ketone is produced after ozonolysis, at least one of the double bonded carbon atoms in the alkene must be disubstituted.
>Catalytic hydrogenation of alkenes leads to the production of

- What is the relationship between the plant pigment beta-carotene and vitamin A?arrow_forwardWhat are the products for the chemical reaction of C2H5OH+O2—->arrow_forwardYou 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?arrow_forward
- Write the combustion reaction for C2H6.arrow_forward(a) Draw the structure of an estrogen and an androgen. (b) What structural features are similar in the two steroids? (c) What structural features are different? (d) Describe the biological activity of each steroid.arrow_forwardOxaloacetic acid (or 2‑ketosuccinic acid) is a very important intermediate in metabolism. The compound is involved in the citric acid cycle for energy production within the cell. However, the compound is unstable and slowly decomposes spontaneously. Draw the decomposition products.arrow_forward
- Methanogens are prokaryotes that produce methane according to the net equation H2 + CO2 CH4 + 2 H20 Some bacteria consume methane according to the net equation CH4 + SO,4 –HCO-3+ HS-+ H2O (a) Classify these two types of bacteria as autotrophic or heterotrophic. (b) Explain why the two types of bacteria are often found associated with each other.arrow_forwardIs C60 aromatic?arrow_forwardGive the functions of the following ingredients, then name a branded/commercial skin or hair care product where the said material is used.
