Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The hydrolysis products of triacylglycerol should be given in presence of; water and H2SO4, and NaOH.
Concept Introduction:
Triacylglycerols are esters formed between glycerol and fatty acids. These can be hydrolyzed in acidic medium and basic medium. The products produced from the hydrolysis is depend on the medium where the hydrolysis occurred.
