Glycerol with three fatty acids attached is referred to as?
Three fatty acids attached to one glycerol molecule is called a triglyceride.
Do lipids have monomers or polymers?
Lipids are not polymers but are macromolecules. So we cannot speak of monomers and polymers of lipids.Lipids are triglycerides, the simplest form being formed by a condensation reaction between a molecule of glycerol (which has 3 -OH groups) and 3 fatty acids.
Why triacyglycerol called as neutral lipids?
as ester is the compound produced as a result of chemical reaction of an alcohol with an acid and a water molecule is released.
Can a third hydrogen join a water molecule?
No. A third hydrogen atom can not join a water molecule. However, it can partially join a water molecule through a process called hydrogen bonding. So the third hydrogen is more attached to its own oxygen atom than it is attached to the other oxygen atom although it is attached to both.
In an organic compound which parts largely determine its physical and chemical properties?
The part of the organic molecule that gives it its chemical and physical properties is called the functional group. Different functional groups will perform different functions.
Many lipids are formed when a glycerol molecule combines with compounds?
Many lipids are formed when a glycerol molecule combines with compounds called fatty acids.
He fatty acids in the tail of a phospholipid molecule are?
This is called the hydrophobic 'side' of the phospholipid molecule
Many lipids formed when glycerol molecule combines with compounds called?
fatty acids.
A group of atoms within a molecule that interact in a predictable way are called?
Functional Group! :)
Glycerol with three fatty acids attached is referred to as?
Three fatty acids attached to one glycerol molecule is called a triglyceride.
What is a molecule of water that has become part of a hydrate called?
Then it is called a 'ligand', an ion or molecule (functional group) that binds to a central metal atom to form a coordination complex as in hydrates.
Do lipids have monomers or polymers?
Lipids are not polymers but are macromolecules. So we cannot speak of monomers and polymers of lipids.Lipids are triglycerides, the simplest form being formed by a condensation reaction between a molecule of glycerol (which has 3 -OH groups) and 3 fatty acids.
A group of atoms within a molecule that interacts in predictable ways with other molecules is called a?
A functional group is a group of atoms within a molecule that interacts with other molecules
What is the Difference between Phospholipids and triglecrol?
There is one major difference regarding the structure of a phospholipid, and a triglyceride. The triglyceride is made of a glyceride molecule. Three lipids, called fatty acids, are bound to this molecule. Phospholipids also contain glyceride and fatty acids. However, instead of three fatty acids, they only have two. The third bound molecule is a phosphate.
Why triacyglycerol called as neutral lipids?
as ester is the compound produced as a result of chemical reaction of an alcohol with an acid and a water molecule is released.
Can a third hydrogen join a water molecule?
No. A third hydrogen atom can not join a water molecule. However, it can partially join a water molecule through a process called hydrogen bonding. So the third hydrogen is more attached to its own oxygen atom than it is attached to the other oxygen atom although it is attached to both.
What can be a water molecule with a proton attached accurately described as?
If you mean H3O + then it is more commonly called the hydronium ion.
