Why might some food companies find it economically advantageous to advertise their products (such as corn oil and margarine) as being composed of polyunsaturated fatty acids?
Oleic acid is an omega-9 monounsaturated fatty acid with 18 carbon atoms. Draw a diagram to show the structure of oleic acid.
2
A reaction is completed on oleic acid that removes its double bond and saturates its
fatty acid chain to become completely saturated. What is true about the product?
a) The melting point of the product will be greater than that of the starting
material.
Ob) The intermolecular forces between molecules of the product will be less than
those between molecules of starting material.
c) The number of kinks in the fatty acid chain will increase.
