(a)
Interpretation:
The double bonds of conjugated linoleic acid (A) should be labeled as cis or trans.
Concept introduction:
Isomers have same chemical formula and different structural formulas. Therefore, they have different properties. Because they have different, spatial or different structures arrangements. Constitutional isomers form by changing the connectivity of atoms. Stereoisomers have different three-dimensional arrangement. Enantiomers and Diastereomers are included into stereoisomers.
(b)
Interpretation:
The structure of stereoisomer of A should be drawn.

(c)
Interpretation:
Whether the stereoisomer have high or low melting point than A should be determined.
Concept introduction:
The melting point of a substance is the temperature at which solid state changes to liquid state. At melting point, the solid and liquid phase exists in equilibrium.
(d)
Interpretation:
Whether A is stereoisomer or constitutional isomer of linoleic acid should be determined.

Its fragrance and taste are often associated with fresh orange juice, and thus it is most commonly used as orange flavoring. It can be produced by the reaction of butanoic acid with ethanol in the presence of an acid catalyst (H+H+): CH3CH2CH2CO2H(l)+CH2CH3OH(l)H+⟶CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3(l)+H2O(l) Part A Given 7.30 gg of butanoic acid and excess ethanol, how many grams of ethyl butyrate would be synthesized, assuming a complete 100%% yield? Express your answer in grams to three significant figures. Part B A chemist ran the reaction and obtained 5.95 gg of ethyl butyrate. What was the percent yield?
