Among the following, the formula of saturated fatty acid is
- A \(\mathrm{C}_{17} \mathrm{H}_{29} \mathrm{COOH}\)
- B \(\mathrm{C}_{17} \mathrm{H}_{35} \mathrm{COOH}\)
- C \(\mathrm{C}_{17} \mathrm{H}_{31} \mathrm{COOH}\)
- D \(\mathrm{C}_{17} \mathrm{H}_{33} \mathrm{COOH}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(\mathrm{C}_{17} \mathrm{H}_{35} \mathrm{COOH}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The general formula for saturated fatty acids is \(\mathrm{C}_{n} \mathrm{H}_{2 n+1} \mathrm{COOH}\)
Among the given acids, only \(\mathrm{C}_{17} \mathrm{H}_{35} \mathrm{COOH}\) satisfy this formula, hence it is a saturated fatty acid.
