JEE Advanced · Chemistry · 27. Carboxylic Acids

In the following reaction sequence, the major product \(\mathbf{P}\) is formed.

Glycerol reacts completely with excess \(\mathbf{P}\) in the presence of an acid catalyst to form \(\mathbf{Q}\). Reaction of \(\mathbf{Q}\) with excess \(\mathrm{NaOH}\) followed by the treatment with \(\mathrm{CaCl}_2\) yields Ca-soap \(\mathbf{R}\), quantitatively. Starting with one mole of \(\mathbf{Q}\), the amount of \(\mathbf{R}\) produced in gram is ________.
[Given, atomic weight: \(\mathrm{H}=1, \mathrm{C}=12,\) \(\mathrm{~N}=14, \mathrm{O}=16, \mathrm{Na}=23, \mathrm{Cl}=35,\) \(\mathrm{Ca}=40\)]
