The lard sample will require more KOH for complete saponification. This is because lard is a saturated fat, and therefore the molecules are more closely packed together. This means that there are more bonds that need to be broken in order to saponify the fat.

Why does triacylglycerides with longer fatty acids have lower saponification number than those shorter fatty acids?

The saponification number is measure of the number of saponifiable sites (i.e. -esterified or unesterified- acyl groups, by reaction with OH-) per (AND HERE COMES THE CLUE)1 gram of tested sample.Just imagine you have 2 samples: L(ong) and S(hort) with the SAME amount of saponifiable sites per molecule (or mole), so they both react with the same amount of reactant (KOH or NaOH).If it were 'per mole' then the saponification numbers would be equal, won't they?BUT saponification number is per 1 gram, and as the Long chained triacylglycerides in sample L do have a higher molecular mass, there are less molecules (or moles, or sapon. sites) of them in 100 grams. Thus sample L has a lower saponification number than sample S.In this way the saponification number is a measure of the average molacular mass (also of average chain length) of triacylglicerides (i.e. normal fats) though under certain restrictions.

How do you calculate saponification value?

(AOAC 920.160) In duplicate about 2g of the oil sample is added to a flask with 30ml of ethanolic KOH and is then attached to a condenser for 30 minutes to ensure the sample is fully dissolved. After sample has cooled 1ml of phenolphthalein is added and titrated with 0.5 M HCl until a pink endpoint has reached.

What sample size is sufficient for stat?

A sample size of one is sufficient to enable you to calculate a statistic.The sample size required for a "good" statistical estimate will depend on the variability of the characteristic being studied as well as the accuracy required in the result. A rare characteristic will require a large sample. A high degree of accuracy will also require a large sample.

Are blood glucose tests painful?

A blood glucose test will require that you have blood drawn for a blood sample so that your glucose levels can be determined to be normal or not. Getting a blood sample will require that a lab technician perform a phlebotomoy where a small needle is used to pierce the skin and draw a small blood sample from the body.

No. Because read one's blood glucose level requires analyzing a sample of that blood.
