Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
A triacylglycerol formed from lauric, myristic and linoleic acids should be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Triacylglycerols are esters that are formed by reacting three molecules of fatty acids with one molecule of glycerol. If all the three fatty acids are identical it is called a simple triacylglycerol and if there are two or more different fatty acids, it is called a mixed triacylglycerol. Depending on whether the fatty acids involved are saturated or unsaturated, there are two types of triacylglycerols.
(b)
Interpretation:
An unsaturated triacylglycerol that contains two cis double bonds in one fatty acid side chain should be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Triacylglycerols are esters that are formed by reacting three molecules of fatty acids with one molecule of glycerol. If all the three fatty acids are identical it is called a simple triacylglycerol and if there are two or more different fatty acids, it is called a mixed triacylglycerol. Depending on whether the fatty acids involved are saturated or unsaturated, there are two types of triacylglycerols.
(c)
Interpretation:
A saturated triacylglycerol that formed from three 14-carbon fatty acids should be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Triacylglycerols are esters that are formed by reacting three molecules of fatty acids with one molecule of glycerol. If all the three fatty acids are identical it is called a simple triacylglycerol and if there are two or more different fatty acids, it is called a mixed triacylglycerol. Depending on whether the fatty acids involved are saturated or unsaturated, there are two types of triacylglycerols.
(d)
Interpretation:
A monounsaturated triacylglycerol should be drawn.

The band at 1645 cm-1, assigned to the O-H bending, showed an absorbance, A, of 1.40. a) Assuming that water density is 1.00 g/mL, calculate the water molar concentration c (hint: M= mole/L) b) Calculate the molar absorptivity, a, of the 1645 cm-1 band c) The transmitted light, I, can be written as I= Ioexp(-xb), where x is the absorption coefficient (sometimes designated as alpha), Io is the input light, and b is the cell pathlength. Prove that x= (ln10)*x*c. (Please provide a full derivation of the equation for x from the equation for I). d) Calculate x for the 1645 cm-1 bandarrow_forward
- For CARS, which statement is not true regarding its advantages? a) Contrast signal based on vibrational characteristics, no need for fluorescent tagging. b) Stronger signals than spontaneous Raman. c) Suffers from fluorescence interference, because CARS signal is at high frequency. d) Faster, more efficient imaging for real-time analysis. e) Higher resolution than spontaneous Raman microscopy.arrow_forwardDraw the major product of the Claisen condensation reaction between two molecules of this ester.
