Question
Chapter 18, Problem 18.17E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason as to why the amount of saturated fat in the diet is a health concern is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Fats and oils are triglycerides formed by the reaction of fatty acids with glycerol. They are hydrophobic in nature, so they are insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. Fats are solid triglycerides and oils are liquid triglycerides at room temperature.

Laser. Indicate the relationship between metastable state and stimulated emission.
The table includes macrostates characterized by 4 energy levels (&) that are
equally spaced but with different degrees of occupation.
a) Calculate the energy of all the macrostates (in joules). See if they all have
the same energy and number of particles.
b) Calculate the macrostate that is most likely to exist. For this macrostate,
show that the population of the levels is consistent with the Boltzmann
distribution.
