Acid palmitic acid has higher melting point, because it has two more methylene groups.

\text { Myristic acid } \rightarrow \mathrm{CH}_3\left(\mathrm{CH}_2\right)_{12} \mathrm{COOH} \\& \text { Palmitic acid } \rightarrow \mathrm{CH}_3\left(\mathrm{CH}_2\right)_{14} \mathrm{COOH} \\

Acid palmitic acid has higher melting point, because it has two more methylene groups.

Giving it a greater surface area and therefore more intermolecular  van der waals interact than the myristic acid.

stearic arid \mathrm{CH}_3\left(\mathrm{CH}_2\right)_{16} \mathrm{COOH}

linoleic acid \mathrm{C}_{18} \mathrm{H}_{32} \mathrm{O}_2 (two double bond)

Stearic acid has higher Melting point, because it does not have any Carbon-Carbon double bonds, whereas linoleic acid has two cis double bonds which prevent the molecules from packing closely together.

Oleic Acid and Linoleic acid.

\mathrm{C}_{18} \mathrm{H}_{34} \mathrm{O}_2-one double bond (cis)

Acid palmitic acid has higher melting point, because it has two more methylene groups.

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Hey, I hope this helps. You gave the equation already balanced so there was no need to do so, the next thing we need to do after balancing is to split the strong electrolytes into ions. Once that is completed we cross off any reoccurring ions. That leaves us with our complete net ionic.

I also recommend you check out Wayne Breslyn on Yt. He is so helpful with equations like these.

Calculate the standard entropy change for the following reactions at 25°C.
Art [367]

Answer:

(a) ΔSº = 216.10 J/K

(b) ΔSº = - 56.4 J/K

(c) ΔSº = 273.8 J/K

Explanation:

We know the standard entropy change for a given reaction is given by the sum of the entropies of the products minus the entropies of reactants.

First we need to find in an appropiate reference table the standard  molar entropies entropies, and then do the calculations.

(a)        C2H5OH(l)          +        3 O2(g)         ⇒        2 CO2(g)     +    3 H2O(g)

Sº            159.9                          205.2                         213.8                  188.8

(J/Kmol)

ΔSº = [ 2(213.8) + 3(188.8) ]   - [ 159.9  + 3(205.) ]  J/K

ΔSº = 216.10 J/K

(b)         CS2(l)               +         3 O2(g)               ⇒      CO2(g)      +      2 SO2(g)

Sº          151.0                              205.2                         213.8                 248.2

(J/Kmol)

ΔSº  = [ 213.8 + 2(248.2) ] - [ 151.0 + 3(205.2) ] J/K = - 56.4 J/K

(c)        2 C6H6(l)           +        15 O2(g)                     12 CO2(g)     +     6 H2O(g)

Sº           173.3                           205.2                           213.8                    188.8

(J/Kmol)  

ΔSº  = [ 12(213.8) + 6(188.8) ] - [ 2(173.3) + 15( 205.2) ] = 273.8 J/K

Whenever possible we should always verify if our answer makes sense. Note that the signs for the entropy change agree with the change in mol gas. For example in reaction (b) we are going from 4  total mol gas reactants to 3, so the entropy change will be negative.

Note we need to multiply the entropies of each substance by  its coefficient in the balanced chemical equation.

The boiling point of another member of this homologous series was found to be 309 KK. What is the likely molecular formula for t
Ganezh [65]

Answer: Pentane C5H12

Explanation:

The boiling point of a substance is simply defined as the temperature whereby a liquid's vapor pressure is equal to the pressure that is surrounding the liquid and hence, the liquid will changes into vapor.

The likely molecular formula for this compound is Pentane i.e C5H12 due to the fact that its boiling point is between Butane with formula C4H10 and Hexane with formula C6H14 boiling points.
