Which of the following four fatty acids has the lowest melting point? 1. сњењењењенгсоон г. сњењењењењењењењењеоон 3. ch3ch2ch2ch2ch2ch2ch2cooh ch3ch-chch2ch2cooh a. 1 b. 2

Option (1) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Melting point is defined as the point at which a solid state of a substance starts to melt and it converts into liquid state.

Also, it is known that more is the number of linear carbon atoms attached to each other, more is the melting point of a substance. Whereas more is the branching present in a compound least will be its melting point.

For example, has only 5 carbon atoms attached to carboxylic acid group. Whereas has 9 carbon atoms attached to carboxylic acid group.

Therefore, compound will have low melting point.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, fatty acid has the lowest melting point.

so here we go

atomic mass

239 + 1 = y + 134 + 3 combine like terms

240 = y + 137             subtract 137 from both terms

240 - 137 = y

103 = y

atomic number

94 = z +54 + 0

94 = z + 54               subtract 54 from both sides.

40 = z
