I need some help with these organic chem pre lab questions for the extraction of trimyristin from nutmeg
4.(1) What technique is used to ensure as much as possible trimyristin is extracted from the nutmeg? 5. (6 pts.) Indicate whe
7.(4 pts.) Draw the structure of trimyristin and circle the organic functional groups. 8. (1 pts.) Trimyritisin is only one c
4.(1) What technique is used to ensure as much as possible trimyristin is extracted from the nutmeg? 5. (6 pts.) Indicate whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F) AND correct any of the false statements. a. The functional group present in trimyristin is a carboxylic acid group b. Pure trimyristin is a liquid at room temperature. c. The term lipid describes a category of organic compounds that are soluble in water.
7.(4 pts.) Draw the structure of trimyristin and circle the organic functional groups. 8. (1 pts.) Trimyritisin is only one component of nutmeg. What happens to the other components of nutmeg? 9. (1 pts.) Why is finely divided nutmeg rather than whole nutmeg specified for this experiment?
