This is because a triacylglycerol is a lipid. Lipids are largely hydrocarbons and they generally do not dissolve in water but they do dissolve in nonpolar substances like other lipids. Monosaccharides are carbohydrates and they contain hydroxyl groups that can easily dissolve in water.
Is this Muhammad ? LOL

∙ 9y agoMonosaccharide's, like practically all polysaccharides, are water soluble. This arises because carbohydrates contain sufficient hydrogen atoms to promote hydrogen bonding with water and oxygen atoms to promote ionic interactions. These types of bonding supports water solubility.

∙ 15y agoMono- and disaccharides have a lot of polar functional groups, called hydroxy-groups. (R-OH)
(Therefore saccharides are also called "polyoles".)
Hydroxy groups can be seen as 2/3 of a water molecule, so they are very similar to water and can have a lot interactions with water. A lot interactions = good solubility.

∙ 12y agoWe have to study the stucture of the monosaccarides;they have a very short chain of carbon atoms which are easily hydrated by water molecules,some monosaccarides are aldoses and the aldyde group .even increases it's solubility.

When a compound such as salt dissolves in water it's said to be?
Soluble
Is the allergen in poison Ivy sap a water-soluble or lipid- soluble molecule. explain your reasoning?
Lipid-soluble because water spreads poison ivy
An organic compound that is not soluble in water?
an organic compound that is not soluble in water
Are polypeptides soluble?
NO. Think of muscles as polypeptides, if they were soluble, then we would be a like a bag of bones in blood.
Is salivary amylase water soluble?
no until water is heated.
Are monosacharides water soluble?
Monosaccharides are soluble in water because they contain hydroxyl groups and either a ketone or an aldehyde group. These polar functional groups make sugars very soluble in water.
Do monosaccharides dissolve in water?
When glucose or other monosaccharides are placed in an aqueous solution, they curl and take a ring form. This is in contrast to the linear form they take otherwise.
Is chlorine a water-soluble or fat-soluble?
Water soluble.
How many molecules of water are released when 2 monosaccharides join?
2 monosaccharides joining releases 1 water molecule.
How are fat soluble and water soluble absorbed?
fat soluble vitamins are stored in our fat tissues and water soluble vitamins are soluble in water.
Is zinc picolinate water soluble?
Partially soluble in water, Soluble in hot water.
Is folate water soluble or fat soluble?
Water soluble.
What common molecule is always formed whenever monosaccharides are joined?
Water is formed when monosaccharides are joined.
Is AlPO4 soluble in water?
No, it is not water soluble.
Which pathway water soluble vs non water soluble takes the longer?
water- soluble
What does muccopolysaccharides mean?
They are long unbranched polysaccharides consisting of a repeating disaccharide unit. Polysaccharides- are relatively complex carbohydrates. They are polymers made up of many monosaccharides joined together by glycosidic bonds. Disaccharides- is a sugar (a carbohydrate) composed of two monosaccharides. One of the four chemical groupings of carbohydrates. Monosaccharides- are the most basic unit of carbohydrates. They consist of one sugar and are usually colorless, water-soluble, crystalline solids. Some monosaccharides have a sweet taste. Hope this helped! :)
Is phosphorus fat or water soluble?
