Vedclass · Answer

(B) Fatty acids are classified based on the length of their carbon chain. Long-chain fatty acids typically contain $14$ to $22$ or more carbon atoms. $1$. Palmitic acid $(C_{16}H_{32}O_2)$ has $16$ carbons. $2$. Stearic acid $(C_{18}H_{36}O_2)$ has $18$ carbons. $3$. Oleic acid $(C_{18}H_{34}O_2)$ has $18$ carbons. Butyric acid $(C_4H_8O_2)$ is a short-chain fatty acid ($4$ carbons). Crotonic acid $(C_4H_6O_2)$ is also a short-chain fatty acid. Therefore,the group consisting of Palmitic,Stearic,and Oleic acids represents long-chain fatty acids.

Column $I$	Column $II$	Column $III$
$I.$ Stearic acid	$p.$ Short chain	$x.$ Saturated
$II.$ Butyric acid	$q.$ Long chain	$y.$ Unsaturated
$III.$ Crotonic acid
$IV.$ Oleic acid
