What total percentage of the fatty acid residues in olive oil contain 18 carbons?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Phantasy [73]3 years ago
4 0
Based on the table "Fatty acid composition of some common edible fats and oils" from http://www.scientificpsychic.com/fitness/fattyacids1.html, 85% of the total fatty acid residues of olive oil are fatty acids containing 18 carbons in their structure.

These fatty acids are stearic acid (3%), which is saturated, oleic acid (71%), which is monounsaturated, and linoleic and alpha-linoleic acid (10% and 1%, respectively), which are polyunsaturated.

Sodium has an atomic number of 11 and an atomic mass of 23. sodium has __________.
seraphim [82]

Sodium has 11 protons, therefore number of neutrons must be 23 – 11 = 12 neutrons.

Sodium has 12 neutrons.

<h3>What are neutrons?</h3>

The neutron is a subatomic particle with the symbol n that is slightly heavier than a proton and has a neutral charge (i.e., neither a positive nor a negative charge). Atoms' nuclei are made up of protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are both referred to as nucleons because of how similarly they function inside the nucleus and because they both have masses that are about equal to one atomic mass unit. Nuclear physics describes their characteristics and interactions.

The arrangement of electrons around an atom's hefty nucleus largely determines its chemical characteristics. The amount of protons, or atomic number, determines the charge of the nucleus, which determines the electron configuration.

Which of the following is a chemical property? A. boiling point B. melting point C. density D. combustibility
nevsk [136]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Because the other answers can not to be considered to be chemical properties.

Chemical means that the after the reaction the checal properties have changed in a way that it can no longer be called the same ad befor. In short, it can not be undone.

Burning a match is irriversable, meaning you can never go back to the previous situation because the chemical compounds have changed (dramatically).

Melted ice can be frozen again. Steam (evaporated water) can condensate to water which can be heated and can boil again. The chemical contents remain H2O.

Ammonia (NH3) can be produced by the reaction of hydrogen gas with nitrogen gas:
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Percent yield = 61.5%

Explanation:

Given data:

Moles of hydrogen = 2.00 mol

Actual yield of ammonia= 0.80 mol

Percent yield = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

3H₂ + N₂ → 2NH₃

Now we will compare the moles of ammonia with hydrogen from balance chemical equation:

                     H₂       :       NH₃

                      3        :         2

                      2        :       2/3×2 = 1.3 mol

Percent yield:

Percent yield = Actual yield / theoretical yield × 100

Percent yield = 0.80 mol /1.3 mol × 100

Percent yield = 0.615 × 100

Percent yield = 61.5%
