Oleic acid and $\alpha$ -linolenic acid (Table 20.4 ) are both unsaturated fats and are liquids at room temperature. They can be converted into solid saturated fats by hydrogenation. a. Which would consume more hydrogen: $1.0 \mathrm{kg}$ of oleic acid or $0.50 \mathrm{kg}$ of $\alpha$ -linolenic acid? b. Could you distinguish between the two fatty acids by determining the identity of their hydrogenation products? Explain your answer.
