Hydrogenation of cholesterol

Chemistry
1 answer:
sp2606 [1]2 years ago
8 0

The molecular structure of the fat is changed when lipids like cholesterol are exposed to hydrogenation.

What is cholesterol?
Any member of the lipids class of specific chemical compounds is a kind of cholesterol. It is a sterol, a class of lipid (or modified steroid).  All animal cells produce cholesterol, which is a crucial part of the membranes that make up those cells. It is a yellowish crystalline solid when chemically separated. It is possible to increase the saturation of fatty acids by adding hydrogen to unsaturated fatty acid chains, which connects the hydrogen atoms to the saturation sites.

Hence, the molecular structure of the fat is changed when lipids like cholesterol are exposed to hydrogenation.

If a compound has a composition of 82% nitrogen and 18% hydrogen, what is the empirical formula for this compound
Damm [24]

Answer: The empirical formula for the given compound is NH_3

Explanation : Given,

Percentage of H = 18 %

Percentage of N = 82 %

Let the mass of compound be 100 g. So, percentages given are taken as mass.

Mass of H = 18 g

Mass of N = 82 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Hydrogen = \frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{18g}{1g/mole}=18moles

Moles of Nitrogen = \frac{\text{Given mass of nitrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of nitrogen}}=\frac{82g}{14g/mole}=5.8moles

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 5.8 moles.

For Hydrogen  = \frac{18}{5.8}=3.10\approx 3

For Nitrogen = \frac{5.8}{5.8}=1

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of H : N = 3 : 1

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is NH_3

A chemist prepares a solution of zinc nitrate Zn(NO3)2 by measuring out 78.3g of zinc nitrate into a 350ml volumetric flask and
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

M = 1.18 mol/L

Explanation:

Moles is denoted by given mass divided by the molecular mass ,

Hence ,

n = \frac{w}{n}

n = moles ,

w = given mass ,

m = molecular mass .

From the information of the question ,

w = 78.3 g

As we known ,

molecular mass of Zn(NO_3)_2 is 189.36 g/mol

m = 189.36 g/mol

moles can be calculated as -

n = \frac{w}{n}

n = \frac{78.3g}{189.36 g/mol}

n = 0.413 mol

MOLARITY  -

Molarity of a substance , is the number of moles present in a liter of solution .

M=\frac{n}{V}

M = molarity ( unit = mol / L or M )

V = volume of solution in liter ( unit = L ),  

n = moles of solute ( unit = mol ),

From the question ,.

V = 350 mL

Since , 1 mL = 10⁻³ L

V = 0.350 L

n = 0.413 mol

Molarity can be calculated as  -

M=\frac{n}{V}

M=\frac{0.413}{0.350}

M = 1.18 mol/L
