Glycerol and fatty acids are found in what type molecule?

Answer 1

Unreacted fatty acids are rare in nature, but most fats and oils are triglycerides of fatty acids, and the acids can be recovered by hydrolyzing the triglycerides. This process is sometimes called "saponification" when the hydrolysis is aided by strong alkali, as in that instance the primary products (aside from glycerin) are salts of fatty acids, which are often good soaps.

Answer 2

Three fatty acids bonded together with glycerol are found in oils and animal fats. Oils and animal fats are triglycerides. The triglycerides with saturated fatty acids are solids at room temperature, such as animal fat. The triglycerides with unsaturated fatty acids are liquid at room temperature, such as oil.

Answer 3

Fats is TAG's is Triacylglicerides isnatural animal and plant fats and oils is saturated and unsaturated fats for food.

Answer 4

Lipids. Glycerol and fatty acids compose the fat molecules.
