​Lipids Review

What is the MW of the fatty acid ? Explain how you get it !

​Cottonseed oil

​Molecular Weight of Fatty Acid Content in Oil

​

​Free Fatty Acid Content

FFA = V x N x MW fatty acid x 100 %

mg sample​

​

MW ​of fatty acid is the molecular weight of that contained in oil

FFA

​Always check the main component of the sample !

The main component of cottonseed oil is C18:2 so MW​ of fatty acid is 280

Multiple Choice

Chemical formula of C18:2

• C18H36O2

• C18H34O2

• C18H32O2

• C18H30O2

Multiple Choice
