C. RMX

D. RgMX

Answer is A. RmgX

Question 5. saturated carboxilic acid as solid at room temperature because?

A. Their regular nature of aliphatic chains allow the molecules to be parked in close parallel alignment

B. Because they have single bond in their hydrocarbon chain

C. Because they have double bond in their hydrocarbon chain

D. Because they are found in natural fats and oils

Discussion

When fatty acids which is saturated boxylic acid made up of single bond that render the hydrocarbons of that carboxylic acid to be solid

But when the same caboxylic acid is made up of double bond it render that caboxylic acid to be liquid.

In case national open university if you choose B, you will score zero.
