What formation results in the hydrolysis of a fat or oil?
glycerol and fatty acids
Table sugar breaking down into glucose and fructose is an example of what?
Hydrolysis, which is a type of chemical decomposition in which a compound is split into other compounds by reacting with water. Refer to the related links below that illustrates the hydrolysis of sucrose.
Is metabolizing fat a part of chemical change?
Yes. When fat is metabolized, it is broken down by a chemical reaction called hydrolysis.
A lipid that undergoes hydrolysis yields arachidonic acid and glycerol Was the lipid a fat or an oil?
oil
What is the process when cells break down molecules?
For example thermal decomposition.
The breakdown of a polysaccharide into monosaccharides is an example of .?
It is an example of hydrolysis.
What does the hydrolysis of a neutral fat result in?
glycerol and three fatty acids
What formation results in the hydrolysis of a fat or oil?
glycerol and fatty acids
What are the products of the acid catalyzed hydolysis of a fat?
Hydrolysis is the process of breaking down a compound with the action of water. The products of the acid catalyzed hydrolysis of a fat are fatty acids and glycerol.

Is metabolizing fat a part of chemical change?
Yes. When fat is metabolized, it is broken down by a chemical reaction called hydrolysis.
Why is the hydrolysis of fat called saponification?
The term "Saponification" is an indication of what this reaction originally was used for: making soap. By boiling animal fat or lard with either potassium hydroxide or sodium hydroxide, the reaction, hydrolysis, produced glycerol and soap.
What part of the gastrointestinal tract is predominant site of dietary fat hydrolysis?
the small intestine
What part of gastrointestinal tract is the predominant site of dietary fat hydrolysis?
the small intestine
A lipid that undergoes hydrolysis yields arachidonic acid and glycerol Was the lipid a fat or an oil?
oil
What process usally requires water?
For example dissolution, hydrolysis, etc.
Which products of fat hydrolysis would cause a change in pH of the whole milk sample?
The pH of a milk sample will go down due to carboylate anions. The hydrolysis is performed with triacylglycerols to glycerol.
