(a)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The structural aspect of the 18-carbon fatty acids can be correlated to the melting point

Introduction:

Fatty acids are a class of lipids. They are non-polar compound this means they can only dissolve in non-polar solvents such as benzene, diethyl ether, and hexane. Fatty acids can be saturated or unsaturated. Saturated fatty acids are those which do no possess any double bond in its structure, For example: Palmitic acid and stearic acid. While unsaturated fatty acids possess one or more double bonds, For example: Oleic acid and linoleic acid.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To draw: The possible triacyglycerols that can be constructed from glycerol, palmitic acid, and oleic acid, and also rank them in order of increasing melting point.
