Oleic Acid Fat Molecule Model Kit

Oleic acid is an omega 9 fatty acid. It consists of 18 carbons and has a single cis double bond at the carbon 9 position. The image below shows the model built 2 different ways. This kit, the and the come with "X" pegs and 120 degree planar carbon atoms to denote double bonds and will produce a flattened representation. (Note, there is also a double bond in the carboxyl group which was inadvertently omitted).

The version at the top, uses longer 35mm bonds to denote double bonds and can be built this way using the or the .
