Textbook Question
Chapter 10.6, Problem 11P
Linolenic acid(Table 10.2) and stearidonic acid are omega-3 fatty acids, unsaturated fatty acids that contain the first double bond located at C3, when numbering begins at the methyl end of the chain. Predict how the melting point of stearidonic acid compares with the melting points of linolenic acid and stearic acids. A current avenue of research is examining the use of soybean oil enriched in stearidonic acid as a healthier alternative to vegetable oils that contain fewer degrees of unsaturation.

Pure acetic acid is a viscous liquid, with high melting and boiling points (16.7 °C and 118 °C) compared to compounds of similar molecular weight. Suggest an explanation.
Give a brief answer to explain why acetic acid has a much higher BP (118 C) than 1-
propanol (BP = 97 C) even though they both have the same size (molecular weight =
60) and they both form Hydrogen bonds.
The torsional energy in propane is 14 kJ/mol (3.4 kcal/mol). Because each H,H eclipsing interaction is worth 4.0 kJ/mol (1.0 kcal/mol) of destabilization, how much is one H,CH3 eclipsing interaction worth in destabilization? (See Section 4.10 for an alternate way to arrive at this value.)
