When linoleic acid, an unsaturated fatty acid, reacts with hydrogen, it forms a saturated fatty acid. Is linoleic acid oxidized or reduced in the hydrogenation reaction?
C18H32O2+2H2?C18H36O2

Explanation / Answer


1.Na+(aq)+e?......> Na(s)...........reduction

2.Ba(s).......>Ba2+(aq)+2e- .......... oxidation

3.Cr3+(aq)+3e- ......> Cr(s)..........reduction

4.2H+(aq)+2e-...........> H2(g)......... reduction

oxidized, and what is reduced.

1. Zn(s)+Cl2(g).......> ZnCl2(s)
oxidized...Zn
reduced....Cl2

2.Cl2(g)+2NaBr(aq).....>2NaCl(aq)+Br2(g)
oxidized...Br
reduced....Cl2

3.2PbO(s)........>2Pb(s)+O2(g)
oxidized...O
reduced....Pb

4.2Fe3+(aq)+Sn2+(aq)......>2Fe2+(aq)+Sn4+(aq)

oxidized...Sn^+2

reduced.... Fe^+3


1.Fe3+ + e-...>Fe2+ ........ reduction

2.Fe2+........>Fe3++e- .......... oxidation


C18H32O2+2H2.............> C18H36O2

reduction
