The structure of glycerol, palmitic acid and oleic acid is attached below. 

For the sake of simplicity, palmitic acid and oleic acid is abbreviated as 'O' and 'P', respectively. 

There are six different triacylglycerols can be constructed, from glycerol, palmitic acid, and oleic acid.

Qualitative structure of these triacylglycerols is represent in terms of 'P' and 'O'. 
                     OOO, OOP, OPO, PPO, POP, PPP 

Further, melting point of saturated fatty acid is greater as compared to unsaturated fatty acid. In present case, palmetic acid is saturated, while oleic acid is unsaturated (see structure below)

Thus, all possible triacylglycerols that can be constructed from glycerol, palmitic acid, and oleic acid, in order of increasing melting point are as follows:
                        OOO < OOP ≈ OPO < PPO ≈ POP < PPP

A scientist put red blood cells in water that contained salt. Over time, the red blood cells burst. What is most likely true?
Tamiku [17]

Answer: There was a lower concentration of salt in the water than in the cells.

Explanation:

Osmosis is a process in which the solvent flow from a solution of low concentration to a solution of high concentration through a semi-permeable membrane.  

When the red blood cells are put in water that contained salt and the red blood cells burst after some time.

This means the solvent has moved from outside to inside the cell and this is possible only when the concentration of solute is high inside the cell than outside. That means the solution has low concentration of solute as compared to the cell and was a hypotonic solution.

Doping Se with P would produce a(n) ________ semiconductor with ____________ conductivity compared to pure Se.
deff fn [24]
Doping Se (group VI elements) with P(group V)elements would produce a P-TYPE semiconductor with HIGHER conductivity compared to pure Se

the reason is P dopant will introduce holes in the Se as P has lesser valence electron

How many grams of carbonic acid were produced by the 3.00 g sample of NaHCO
stellarik [79]
I think the given is 3 g sample of NaHCO3. then if it will be reacted with an acid, it will produce H2CO3.
 so the reaction NaHCO3 + HCl --> NaCl + H2CO3

mas of H2CO3 = 3 g NaHCO3 ( 1 mol NaHCO3 / 84 g ) ( 1 mol H2CO3 / 1 mol NaHCO3) ( 62.03 g / 1 mol )
mass of H2CO3 = 2.22 g H2CO3

The Mass of the mineral is 9.6 grams . The mineral is placed in a graduated cylinder containing 8.0 ml of water . The water rise
ryzh [129]

Answer:

1.2 g/ ml

Explanation:

The volume of the mineral = increase in volume of the water whuich is 16 - 8 = 8mls.

Therefore the  mineral's density = 9.6 / 8

=  1.2 g/ ml  answer
