Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The classification of the given reaction situation as involving whether complete hydrolysis or partial hydrolysis has to be predicted.
Concept introduction: Triacylglycerol is produced by the reaction of one molecule of glycerol and three molecules of fatty acid. The three hydroxyl groups of glycerol get esterified on reaction with fatty acids.
The hydrolysis of triacylglycerol is carried out in the presence of an acid or a base. The hydrolysis of triacylglycerol takes place in the presence of an acid forms glycerol and fatty acid as the desired products. The hydrolysis of triacylglycerol takes place in the presence of a base forms glycerol and fatty acid salts as the desired products.
