Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When a fatty acid contains high number of double bonds then its unsaturation will also be high and hence, it will consume greater number of equivalents of hydrogen.

In corn oil, there are no unsaturated sites are present.

In olive oil, there is one unsaturated site with majority of oleic acid. In olive oil, there are more than 70% of total unsaturated oils.

In lard oil, there are around 60% of unsaturated oils.

In herring oil, there are highest number of saturated fatty acids and lowest polyunsaturated acids.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, olive oils would consume the greatest number of equivalents of hydrogen when subject to catalytic hydrogenation.

Are ions of alkali metals larger or smaller than ions of alkaline earth metals from the same period
PtichkaEL [24]
Because size of an atom INCREASES from top to bottom and DECREASES from left to right on the periodic table. If to elements are in the same period they can't increase in size based on the up or down trend. Instead, notice that Alkali Metals are LEFT of Alkaline Earth Metals. Therefore, the Alkali Metal will be larger than the Alkaline Earth Metals.
