Gycerol or Glycerine is a trihydric alcohol having 3 carbons and 3 hydroxyl group (1,2,3-propa triol) it is a thick oily liquid ,miscible in water and antifreezing agent for water.
mainly fat molecules and glycerol
A glycerol molecule and three fatty acid molecules.
Fatty acid molecules and glycerol molecules.
The three molecules attached to a glycerol molecule are fatty acids. These fatty acids form lipid molecules such as triglycerides, phospholipids, or waxes depending on the type and arrangement of the fatty acids bonded to the glycerol backbone.
The formation of glycerol tributyate, an ester derived from glycerol and butyric acid, involves the reaction of one glycerol molecule with three butyric acid molecules. During this esterification process, three water molecules are produced as byproducts, one for each of the three ester bonds formed. Therefore, a total of three water molecules are produced in the formation of glycerol tributyate.
Yes, glycerol is a component of fat molecules known as triglycerides. Triglycerides consist of a glycerol molecule attached to three fatty acid molecules. Glycerol provides the backbone structure for storing and transporting fats in the body.

fatty acids
lipids
Hydrolysis of lipid molecules yields fatty acids and glycerol. This process breaks down lipids into their individual components, which can then be used by the body for energy production or to build new molecules.
FATTY ACIDS APEX
To form a molecule of fat, the two types of molecules that are needed are glycerol and fatty acid. One glycerol molecule attaching itself to three molecules of fatty acid will give one molecule of fat.
