Cacay oil has higher palmitic acid content than butter or coconut oil (refer to Table 1). Therefore, cacay oil SHOULD be solid at room temperature, not oil Table 1.

In contrast, lower saturated fatty acid content (23.6%) was found in cacay oil.Similar results were obtained by Radice et al. [6], who reported low saturated fatty acid contentin cacay oil (14.3%), with a predominance of palmitic acid (10.3%).Cacay oil, coconut oil, and cacay butter presented similar percentages of oleic acid amongthe detected monounsaturated acids. Lower results were reported by Correia et al. [24] andPérez et al. [5] in coconut oil (9.9%) and cacay oil (11.8%), respectively. Trans-fatty acid (oleicacid isomer) was found in cacay oil (0.7%), but at a content considered insignificant whencompared to Codex Alimentarius [25].Linoleic acid (w-6) was the most abundant fatty acid in cacay oil regarding polyunsaturatedfatty acids (PUFA). Radice et al. [6] found high PUFA (85.7%) content in cacay oil, along withhigh linoleic acid (85.6%) content. A lower PUFA content in cacay butter can be explained dueto the lower content of cacay oil, since cacay butter is a product resulting from mixing 70%coconut oil with 30% cacay oil.Thus, the high presence of polyunsaturated fatty acids in cacay oil demonstrates its poten-tial as a raw material for food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic products since polyunsaturatedfatty acids may have bioactive properties of industrial interest [26].

A student follows a lab protocol that asks them to make an ‘alcohol’ solution for an experiment. They make a 1.00 L solution by adding 575 g of an alcohol to water. Later they realize that there were three different alcohols sitting on the lab bench and they’re not sure which one they used. The alcohols are: methanol (CH3OH), ethanol (C2H5OH), and butanol (C4H9OH). They decide to boil the solution and they find that it boils at 106.40 °C. Using this information determine which alcohol the student used to make their solution. Density of water is 1.00 g/mL, Kb = 0.513 K/mc. Hint: you need to consider the molar masses of your alcohols.
