Why is it said that the higher the degree of unsaturation, the lower the melting
point?

✔ 最佳答案
因為unsaturation既lipid molecules,有CC double bonding,呢個bonding特性得三隻腳(bonding)會扭曲左lipid既carbon chain,越多既CC double bonding,就越三尖八角,所以越難pack番做固體。
而saturated既lipid結構工整對稱,分子間作用力強,因而熔點較高,室溫下呈固態。

因為分子越工整,佢地好似長方型積木咁,可以pack得好實,無隙縫。

但當你用d L型V型既積木,pack個立體,好難pack,所以用越晒角既積木,你到最後都係見到一地都係呢D積木,散修修咁。點pack到個立體呢

其實organic chem入面既原理係要molecule 同molecule之間既surface area面對面既面積越大,接觸越多,咁van der waals force越大,咁melting point就越高。 而unsaturated既lipid因為起晒角,molecule 同molecule之間面對面接觸少左,所以melting point下降

melting point is affected by the shape
the higher degree of unsaturation, difficult to pack into solid(unsymmetrical)
lower the m.p.
