What is the odor of coconut oil in acrolein test?
The smell of acrolein is that of burnt fat (when cooking oil is heated to its smoke point). This is caused by the breaking down of glycerol into acrolein when burning (or overheating, pyrolizing) fat.
What is the principle behind the kraut's test for lipids?
Kraut's test for lipids is a test for glycerol. One of the reagents used in Kraut's test for lipids is bismuth subnitrate
Is glycerol a discaccharide?
No, glycerol is subunit of lipids.
Which is NOT a smaller subunit of a nucleotide?
Glycerol is not a subunit of nucleotides. Glycerol is a subunit of triglycerides and phospholipids (types of lipids).
Are there any elements in glycerol that are not in carbohydrate?
No, every element found in glycerol is found in a carbohydrate.

Is glycerol positive for acrolein test?
yes
The result of Acrolein Test?
Acrolein test is a test for the presence ofglycerin or fats. A sample is heated with potassium bisulfate, and acrolein is released if the test is positive.[8] When a fat is heated strongly in the presence of a dehydrating agent such asKHSO4, the glycerol portion of the molecule is dehydrated to form the unsaturated aldehyde, acrolein (CH2=CH-CHO), which has the peculiar odor of burnt grease.

What is the proper technique to test the odor of a vapor in a test tube?
Often, there are better ways to test a substance than an odor test. If necessary, carefully and gradually waft the vapor toward your nose. Don't stick your nose in or over the testtube.
Why acrolein is a general test for fats?
Because when a fat is heated strongly in the presence of a dehydrating agent such as KHSO4, the glycerol portion of the molecule is dehydrated to form the unsaturated aldehyde, acrolein (CH2=CH-CHO), which has the peculiar odor of burnt grease. A sample is heated with potassium bisulfate, and acrolein is released if the test is positive. That's why Acrolein test is a test for the presence of glycerin or fats. source from the page of: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrolein

What is made up of 1 Glycerol and 3 Fatty Acids?
No glycerol is a chemical in its own right. It is CH2(OH)CH(OH)CH2OH but an oil can be converted to Glycerol and fatty acids. So it is more correct to ask "Is an oil made from glycerol and fatty acids?' and the answer would be yes.
What color is glycerol?
Glycerol is colorless.
Is glycerol a discaccharide?
No, glycerol is subunit of lipids.
Why is glycerol solid at room temperature?
Glycerol can be as a solid at low temperatures.they are not solid, but highly viscous. It is the physical property of Glycerol
