Fats and oils are triesters, with a common formula CH2RCHR'CH2R" (where R, R' and R" are alkyl chains which may or may not be the same; they usually are). A fat can be made by mixing propan-1,2,3-triol (CH2OHCHOHCH2OH) with a carboxylic acid (RCOOH). The addition of concentrated sufuric acid greatly speeds the rate of production; the acid must be neutralised from the final product before it is handled. At the end, you will have a fat or oil.

The type of formula that shows the arrangements of atoms and bonds is called?
The empiracle formula shows the ratio of the individual elements in a compound, and the molecular formula shows the actual number of each elemental atom in each molecule (which will be equal to the empiracle formula or a whole number multiple of it). However, it is the structural formula that shows how the individual atoms are connected.
What is the structural formula of a butanol molecule?
Assuming you want the structural formula of 'Butan-1-ol' it is CH3CH3CH3CH2OH
What is the Structural formula for 3-methyl-1-butene?

CH3CH2OH is the structural formula for what compound?
The structural formula CH3CH2OH describes ETHANOL.
How does a complete structural formula differ from a condensed structural formula?
------ The condensed structural formula is simply a shortened version of the complete structural formula. -------The complete formula indicates all of the carbon and hydrogen atoms. The condenced formula groups the hydrogen atoms with each of the carbon atoms.

What is the difference between a chemical formulamolecular formula and a structural formula?
A structural formula represents the molecule graphically, whereas the other does not.
How does a complete structural formula differ from condensed formula?
The complete or full structural formula shows all the atoms and their bonds separately. The condensed structural formula shows the atoms present but does not show the bonds.
What does structural formula show about a molecule of a compound?
The structural formula show the spatial aspect of the molecule.
What does a structural formula shows about a molecule of a compound?
The structural formula show the spatial aspect of the molecule.
