Which products of fat hydrolysis would cause a change in the pH of a whole milk sample?

An ester is a compound composed of an acid and an alcohol (the two molecules condense and a water molecule is released). The hydrolysis of an ester refers to its reaction with water to produce the constituent alcohol and acid.
Fats are generally esters of the alcohol glycerin with fatty acids (long chain carboxylic acids). Thus, when fats are hydrolyzed, a (weak) acid will be released, lowering the pH of the milk.

Does breaking monomer cause polymers?
No. Monomers are the building blocks of Polymers. When a Polymer is broken (by Hydrolysis) you get monomers or a monomer and a shorter ploymer.
What arrangement of atoms in a repeating pattern in a mineral causes the formation of?
The arrangement of atoms in a mineral sample can cause the formation of crystals.
What type of chemical reaction would cause sucrose to break up into simpler units?
Hydrolysis or a hydrolytic is a reaction in which a water molecule i.e Sucrose, is needed to break up a complex molecule i.e glucose, into smaller molecule.
Why is it important for the sample wells to be near the negative electrode?

Which products of fat hydrolysis would cause a change in pH of the whole milk sample?
The pH of a milk sample will go down due to carboylate anions. The hydrolysis is performed with triacylglycerols to glycerol.
Will strong acid cause protein hydrolysis?
yes it will
Which of the following is NOT a cause of mechanical weathering?
burrowing
What is the initial cause of the dissociation of water molecules into hydrogen and hydroxide ions?
hydrolysis
Bubbles begin to form in a sample of liquid but the temperature did not change What must happened to cause the change?
There may have been some gas in the liquid, or maybe there was a decrease in pressure.
Imagine that bubbles begin to form a sample of liquid but the temperature did not change.what must have happened to cause this change?
Decrease in pressure and volume.
What ions cause an acid-base indicator to change?
Basically, hydroxonium ions and hydroxil ions are responsible for the acidic/basic property. Due to processes such as hydrolysis, other ions might too interfere.
How pH of culture be influenced by urea hydrolysis?
It will cause the culture to become more basic...an increase in pH
How would the technician verify the cause of the problem?
verify the cause by testing the sample
How would the technician verify the cause of problem?

Do Pantene products cause Dandruff?
No they don't. Shampoos can cause dry scalp though so this is what could be happening so it might do you could to change your brand of shampoo.
Which temperature change would cause the volume of a sample of an ideal gas to double when the pressure of the?
For the pressure to remain the same, the temperature would double if the volume also doubled.
