Question
Chapter 19, Problem 19.41P
Interpretation Introduction
(a)
Interpretation:
The structure of a wax formed from palmitic acid and CH3(CH2)21OH should be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Waxes are esters formed by reacting a fatty acid and a high molecular weight alcohol. Because of the large nonpolar portion of waxes, they are very hydrophobic. Therefore, waxes can be used as water repellent coating.
Interpretation Introduction
(b)
Interpretation:
The structure of a wax formed from palmitic acid and CH3(CH2)11OH should be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Waxes are esters formed by reacting a fatty acid and a high molecular weight alcohol. Because of the large nonpolar portion of waxes, they are very hydrophobic. Therefore, waxes can be used as water repellent coating.
Interpretation Introduction
(c)
Interpretation:
The structure of a wax formed from palmitic acid and CH3(CH2)9OH should be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Waxes are esters formed by reacting a fatty acid and a high molecular weight alcohol. Because of the large nonpolar portion of waxes, they are very hydrophobic. Therefore, waxes can be used as water repellent coating.
