Figure 3: Chemical structure and picture of corn. 8. The monomer in Figure 3 undergoes esterification with itself to form a polymer. Draw the reaction between two molecules of this compound to form the first step in the polymerization. Insert your signed image into your document. (4 pts) 9. a) Would the monomer in Figure 3 expect to be soluble in water based on its functional groups? Explain why. b) Would the polymer formed from this monomer expect to be soluble in water? Explain why. (4 pts) 10. a) How are fats similar to oils? b) How are fats generally different from oils in terms of their origins, properties, and chemical makeup? (4 pts) 11. a) Why are fats and oils not soluble in blood by themselves? Explain how lipoproteins are able to make fats and oils be carried in the bloodstream? b) What two main chemical components make up triacylglycerols (fats and oils)? What is the functional group called that forms between the two of them? (4 pts)
