∙ 12y agoFat is actually not a compound, it is a mixture of many esterified acids called 'fatty acids'. But it is basically a triglyceride, a triester of Glycerol (C3H5(OH)3) with fatty acids (R):
CH2ORCHOR'CH2OR
The symbol R represents 'aliphatic carboxyl groups' with linear, even numbered, alkane or alkene chains.
General formula -C(O)-(CH2)2n-CH3 with n=0,1,2,3....
Some examples of possible fatty acids (esterified, all very common in milk fat)
Stearate (from stearic acid): -C(O)-(CH2)16-CH3 with n=8, so 'octadecanoate'
Caproate (from Caproic acid): -C(O)-(CH2)4-CH3 with n=2, so 'hexanoate'
Butyrate (from Butyric acid): -C(O)-(CH2)2-CH3 with n=1, so 'butanoate'
