A glycerol molecule and three fatty acid molecules.
No, Olestra is not a triacylglycerol. It is a synthetic fat substitute made from the esterification of sucrose with fatty acids. Unlike triacylglycerols, which are composed of glycerol and three fatty acid chains, Olestra is designed to provide the texture and mouthfeel of fat without being absorbed by the body, thus containing zero calories.
A balanced equation for the preparation of soap from triacylglycerol is (C18H29O2)3-C3H5O3 + 3KOH -> 3C18H29O2K + HOCH2CH(OH)CH2OH. The acyl portions are all derived from linolenic acid and use potassium hydroxide as the base.
Adipose tissue triacylglycerol
It is necessary to give the name of this compound for an answer.
Triacylglycerol is composed of a glycerol molecule bound to three fatty acid molecules through ester linkages. Each fatty acid molecule consists of a long hydrocarbon chain with a carboxylic acid group at one end.

The oil is the triacylglycerol.
Adipose tissue triacylglycerol
sorry!
Lipid monomers have 2 parts- two or three fatty acids bond to one glycerol
Fats, waxes, and oils are all considered lipids.

Lipids are also known as fats.
Sulfuric acid is commonly used as a catalyst in the esterification of glycerol and butyric acid to produce glyceryl tributyrate, a type of triacylglycerol.
