Do fatty acid and glycerol both contain a carboxyl group?
No, only fatty acids contain carboxyl groups.
How many fatty acid molecules are needed to form fat molecule?
You need 1 glycerol molecule and also 3 fatty acids to to make a lipid.
What are the monomers of triglyceride?
1 glycerol and 3 fatty acids so the monomers basically are glycerol and fatty acids
Are essential fatty acids polyunsaturated fatty acids?
Yes, and also monounsaturated fatty acids. The saturated fat is the bad fat.
How do you separate amino acids from fatty acids?
Amino acids are soluble in water and fatty acids are not.
Do fatty acid and glycerol both contain a carboxyl group?
No, only fatty acids contain carboxyl groups.
How many fatty acid molecules are needed to form fat molecule?
You need 1 glycerol molecule and also 3 fatty acids to to make a lipid.
Are fats acid ketones ethers esters or alcohols?
Fats are esters of fatty acids and glycerin (propane-1,2,3-triol).
Which chamical is used to make soap?
Soaps are water-soluble sodium or potassium salts of fatty acids. It's made from fats and oils, or their fatty acids, by treating them chemically with a strong alkali.
Why do potassium salts of fatty acids yield soft soap?
Potassium salts of fatty acids should yield soft soaps because they are more soluble in water than sodium salts of fatty acids (which yield hard soaps). They contain more water, so they are softer.
Do fatty and glycerol both contain a carboxyl group?
No, only fatty acids do contain a carboxyl group -C(=O)(-OH) (they are alternatively called: carboxylic acids). Glycerol contains three hydroxylic groups -C(-OH), propane-1,2,3-triol
What is the most common building blocks of lipids?
Fatty acids and glycerol
What is the chemical equation for preparing propane from a sodium salt of fatty acid?
The chemical equation is:CH3(CH2)2COONa + NaOH = C3H8 + Na2CO3
Distinguish between saturated fatty acids and saturated fatty acids?
There is no difference between saturated fatty acids and saturated fatty acids. If you meant saturated fatty acids and UNsaturated fatty acids, then the unsaturated ones are the ones with double (or, theoretically, triple) bonds in the carbon chain.
What are unsaturated fatty acids?
Unsaturated fatty acids are fatty acids that have double bonds in their long carbon chains.
What are the pharmaceutical uses of oxalic acid?
The pharmaceutical uses of Oxalic Acid is to prepare organic acids. Oxalic Acids are important for the metabolism. The water solubility is important in breaking down fatty acids.
What are components of fats?
Fat is made up of fatty acids and glycerol. A triglyceride is formed when a glycerol forms with three fatty acids.
