A certain phospholipid molecule contains two fatty acid chains of eight carbon atoms each having no carbon-carbon double bonds i
n the chain. The phosphate ion is attached to a polar
organic molecule, X, just as highlighted in yellow in the figure in the introduction.
Complete the structure of the phospholipid molecule using the structure in the introduction. To include a X group in your structure, draw another atom, hover over the atom with the
mouse, and then press the X key on your keyboard.
Draw the molecule on the canvas by choosing buttons from the Tools (for bonds), Atoms, and Advanced Template toolbars. The single bond is active by default.

Here's what I get
Explanation:
The fatty acids form ester C-O bonds with the OH groups of glycerol and the phosphoric acid forms phosphate P-O bonds.
The phosphate also forms P-O ester linkages with the OH groups in other alcohols such as choline.
The structure below shows the phospholipid with two saturated C₈ fatty acids and the phosphate group.

The amount of hydrogen chloride that can be made is 1064 g
Why?
The two reactions are:
2H₂O → 2H₂ + O₂ 75.3 % yield
H₂ + Cl₂ → 2HCl 69.8% yield
We have to apply a big conversion factor to go from grams of water (The limiting reactant), to grams of HCl, the final product. We have to be very careful with the coefficients and percentage yields!
Have a nice day!
