Hello i need help please Questions 1 and 2 (lipids)

Chemistry

dlinn [17]1 year ago

The question requires us to complete the sentences regarding characteristics and properties of lipids.

First, we need to keep in mind what are lipids: these essential molecules to cell's membranes are typically made of a glycerol backbone, fatty acid "tails" (the hydrofobic part) and and a phosphate group (a hydrophilic part). The term "lipids" is commonly used as a synonym for "fats", which it isn't completely wrong as they share many properties (for example, lipids don't mix with water).

As they are organic molecules, all lipids have carbon, oxygen and hydrogen in their structure, while some of them can contain other elements (such as phosphorus for the phospate group and nitrogen).

<em>Considering the information above, we can complete the sentences as:</em>

<em>1. "Lipids is a general term describing organic molecules that are </em>insoluble<em> in water".</em>

<em>2. "</em>All<em> lipids are made of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, while </em>some<em> lipids contain other elements..."</em>

For the equation to balance out, you would need 2 H2O on the product. That will give a total of 1 Carbon, 4 Hydrogens and 4 Oxygens on each side.

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

We can have: Calcium, strontium, or barium

Explanation:

In this case, we have to remember the solubility rules for sulfate SO_4~^-^2 and the chloride Cl^-:

<u>Sulfate</u>

All sulfate salts are SOLUBLE-EXCEPT those also containing: Calcium, silver, mercury (I), strontium, barium or lead.(Ca^+^2~,Ag^+~,Hg_2^+^2~,Sr^+2~,Ba^+^2~,Pb^+^2), which are NOT soluble.

<u>Chloride</u>

All chloride salts as SOLUBLE-EXCEPT those also containing: lead, silver, or mercury (I). (Pb^+^2~,Ag^+~,Hg_2~^+^2), which are NOT soluble.

If we the salt formed a precipitated with the sulfate anion, we will have as possibilities "Calcium, silver, mercury (I), strontium, barium or lead". If We dont have any precipitated with the Chloride anion we can discard "Silver, mercury (I),  lead" and our possibilities are:

<u>"Calcium, strontium, or barium".</u>

I hope it helps!
