I think the fatty acids that may be used to make a fat that is liquid at room temperature are One plamitic acid, one stearic acid, and one oleic acid.
Fatty acids are composed of linked chains of carbon atoms with an organic acid group at the end of the chain. Liquid fats or Oils are mainly obtained from plants or fish sources, and have high percentages of unsaturated fatty acids.

Answer:

A combination of oleic acid & palmitic acid.

Explanation:

Oleic acid is an unsaturated fatty acid and unsaturated fatty acids are liquid at room temperature because of the presence of double bond in them.

Between palmitic acid and stearic acid, we will choose palmitic acid because palmitic acid (16 carbon chain) has less number of carbon atoms as compared to stearic acid (18 carbon chain) that is why it is liquid at room temperature. The fatty acids which have more number of carbon atoms have more Tm (transition temperature) so they will require more temperature for changing phase from solid to liquid. So, it simply means they will be solid at room temperature that is why we will not choose stearic acid.

Tm ∝ No. of carbon atoms in the lipid ∝  hydrophobic interactions.

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

A. Constitutional or structural isomers have the same molecular formula but different structural formulas.

B. Conformational isomers are compounds having the same atom to atom connectivity but differ by rotation about one or more single bonds.

C. Stereo isomers are compounds having the same molecular mass and atom to atom connectivity but different arrangement of atoms and groups in space.

I. Enantiomers are stereo isomers (optical isomers particularly) that are non-superimposable mirror images of each other.

II. Diasteromers are optical isomers that are not mirror images of each other.

Both diasteromers and enantiomers are types of optical isomers which in turn is one of the types of stereo isomers.

Stereo isomers differ from conformational isomers in that the arrangement of atoms in stereo isomers is permanent while conformational isomers results from free rotations in molecules about single bonds.

Calculate the time needed for a constant current of 0.961 a to deposit 0.500 g of co(ii) as
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

1.70 × 10³ seconds

<h3>Explanation </h3>

\text{Co}^{2+} + 2 e⁻ → \text{Co}

It takes two moles of electrons to reduce one mole of cobalt (II) ions and deposit one mole of cobalt.

Cobalt has an atomic mass of 58.933 g/mol. 0.500 grams of Co contains 0.500 / 58.933 = 8.484\times 10^{-3} \; \text{mol} of Co atoms. It would take 2 \times 8.484 \times 10^{-3} = 0.01697 \; \text{mol} of electrons to reduce cobalt (II) ions and produce the 8.484\times 10^{-3} \; \text{mol} of cobalt atoms.

Refer to the Faraday's constant, each mole of electrons has a charge of around 96 485 columbs. The 0.01697 mol of electrons will have a charge of 1.637 \times 10^{3} \; \text{C}. A current of 0.961 A delivers 0.961 C of charge in one single second. It will take 1.637 \times 10^{3} / 0.961 = 1.70 \times 10^{3} \; \text{s} to transfer all these charge and deposit 0.500 g of Co.
