What type of organic molecule the includes fats oils and waxes?
Lipids are the organic molecules that include fats, oils, and waxes. They are characterized by their hydrophobic nature and diverse functions in energy storage, structural components, and cell signaling.
What is the chemical difference between oils and waxes?
Oils are fats which are liquid at room temperature, waxes are fats which are solid at room temperature. Both waxes and oils can be emulsified. Chemicaly waxes and oils consist of hydrocarbons or esters of fatty acids, they are insoluble in water but soluble in nonpolar organic solvents. The difference in class is based on melting point and larger molecules tend to melt at higer temperatures and are more likely to be waxes, however side chains can lower melting points and hydrogen bonding can raise them. In summary the classification into oil or wax is due to the size of the hydrocarbon and its complexity.
What substances are commonly called lipids?
Is hydrocodiene a chemical. How long take to get out of system. Its been 5 days. I also take clonopin for
What makes waxes harder and more difficult to melt than fats?
Waxes typically have longer carbon chain lengths compared to fats, which gives them a higher melting point. Additionally, waxes often contain straight-chain hydrocarbons which pack together more tightly, requiring more energy to break their bonds and melt them. This structural difference contributes to the harder and more difficult to melt properties of waxes compared to fats.
What is the monomer of waxes?
fats and oils monomer is triglyceridesphospholipids are diacylgceridesWaxes contain fatty acids, attached to long-chain alcohols
