Question
Chapter 23, Problem 23.88SP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The structure of glyceryl trimyristate, a fat molecule whose components are glycerol and three units of myristic acid is to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
The structure is the diagram representing the geometry of the molecule. The structures are used to the elaborate the electric structure of the molecule.
The glyceryl trimyristate is the triglyceride molecule which is a fat molecule.
The glyceryl trimyristate is formed by the reaction of glycerol with the three units of myristic acid.
The glycerol is the tri alcohol and myristic acid is saturated fatty acid with 14 carbon atoms.
