(a)
Interpretation:
The skeletal structure of DHA that is a common fatty acid present in tuna fish oil should be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Lipids are
(b)
Interpretation:
The omega-n designation for DHA should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Lipids are biomolecules that are involved in different biochemical reactions. They are special types of organic molecules which can only be identified with the help of their physical properties, not by the presence of any certain functional group. In general, lipids contain a large number of C-C and C-H bonds with few polar functional groups such as −OH, -SH, etc. For example, triacylglycerol consists of three ester groups whereas Vitamin E is composed of both ether and phenolic groups. Since the size of these polar groups is negligible compared to the overall size of the organic molecule, the lipids are non-polar organic molecules which can be soluble in different organic solvents.

Below is just the information I used to get the graphs obtain the graph please help. Prepare two graphs, the first with the percent transmission on the vertical axis and concentration on the horizontal axis and the second with absorption on the vertical axis and concentration on the horizontal axis. Solution # Unknown Concentration (mol/L) Transmittance Absorption 9.88x101 635 0.17 1.98x101 47% 0.33 2.95x101 31% 0.51 3.95x10 21% 0.68 4.94x10 14% 24% 0.85 0.62 A.) Give an equation that relates either the % transmission or the absorption to the concentration. Explain how you arrived at your equation. B.) What is the relationship between the percent transmission and the absorption? C.)
