Lipases are enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of esters, especially esters of
glycerol. Because enzymes are chiral catalysts, they catalyze the hydrolysis of only
one enantiomer of a racemic mixture. For example, porcine pancreatic lipase catalyzes
the hydrolysis of only one enantiomer of the following racemic epoxyester. Calculate
the number of grams of epoxyalcohol that can be obtained from 100 g of racemic
epoxyester by this method."

Calculate the maximum number of possible stereoisomers of 2-methylocta-4,6-1-amine using the following formula:
Maximum number of possible stereoisomers = 2n (where n= the number of chiral carbons in your molecule). This calculation does not include E- or Z- isomers for any compounds containing double bonds
Which is a characteristic of the phospholipids in cell membranes?
Select one:
Phospholipids in a membrane interact with other membrane molecules, in part, through covalent forces
Phospholipids are lipid molecules with a polar head and a non-polar tail, where the interaction of these components with other molecules of itself, results in membrane formation
Increasing the proportion of protein in a membrane increases the amount of membrane symmetry
Increasing the proportion of saturated fatty acids in a membrane increases membrane fluidity
A phospholipid molecule glows in the dark after exposure to visible light
