Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The meaning of saturated fat is to be explained.
Concept introduction:
A normal fat is a triester compound which is produced by the reaction between glycerol and fatty acid. The fat is also known as the triglyceride.
In general production procedure, three molecules of fatty acids (RCOOH) reacts with one molecule of glycerol to produce one molecule of triglyceride, the fat.
(b)
Interpretation:
The meaning of soap is to be explained.
Concept introduction:
The soap is a cleansing agent which is produced by combining an alkali with a natural fatty acid. The reaction involved in this process is said to be a saponification reaction.
(c)
Interpretation:
The proof of an alcoholic beverage should be explained.
Concept introduction:
The proof of alcohol also known as ‘alcohol proof’ is a measurement procedure to identify the amount alcohol present in any specific beverage. Basically, it gives a proof to classify alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages.
(d)
Interpretation:
The meaning of denatured alcohol is to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Alcohol is a very common organic compound which have (−OH) functional group. The general formula of alcohol is R-OH.
Where, R can be any hydrocarbon or carbon residue.
Generally, when alcohol is heard of in daily use, most of them are nearly all of them are ethyl alcohol or ethanol with a chemical formula of C2 H5 OH. All the beverages and alcoholic products have more common compound as ethanol.
