Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The numbers of possible constitutional isomers are in a triglyceride, which contains one molecule each of palmitic acid, oleic acid, and stearic acid has to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Constitutional isomers: These are compounds having same molecular formula but having different structural arrangements that is different connectivity of atoms or group of atoms in it
(b)
Interpretation:
Among the constitutional isomers, the chiral ones have to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Chiral molecule: Molecules containing atoms which are surrounded by different atoms or group of atoms are called chiral molecule.
