Question: Although naturally occurring unsaturated fatty acids generally have the Z configuration, elaidic acid, a C18 fatty acid having an E double bond, is present in processed foods such as margarine and cooking oils. Predict how the melting point of elaidic acid compares with the melting points of stearic and oleic acids (Table 10.2).

Question: Give the IUPAC name for each polyfunctional compound.
Question: 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 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.
