Show the balanced equation for this reaction carried out on palmitoleic acid. Use lineangle structures. What is the name of the product in this case? 2. Name one major food product that is produced using this chemical reaction. 3. A \( 0.150 \mathrm{~g} \) sample of a pure compound subjected to catalytic hydrogenation takes up \( 25.0 \) \( \mathrm{mL} \) of \( \mathrm{H}_{2} \) at \( 25^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \) and 1 atm pressure. Calculate the molecular weight of the compound, assuming it has only one double bond. For full credit show your work.
Expert Answer
This is the hydrogenation reaction. Balanced equation is Palmitoleic acid undergoes reduction with hydrogen in the presence of metal catalyst (nickel) to give palmitic acid Name of the product is Palmitic acid 2
