this statement is true, please prvide counterargument
"A saturated fatty acid sample has a high boiling point. A triacylglycerol is composed of glycerol and three saturated fatty acids. Therefore, a sample not containing this triacylglycerol will have a low boiling point."
Identify the following features of this phospholipid:
a.) Is the phospholipid formed from glycerol or sphingosine?
b.) What is the fatty acid?
c.) What type of bond connects the fatty acid?
d.) What is the amino alcohol?
Why is thymol insoluble with bicarbonate and diethyl ether and why is glycine soluble in HCl? Thank you in advance!

- Which of the following statements is incorrect? A. Because like dissolves like, the nonpolar end of the soap molecule can dissolve greasy dirt, and the polar or ionic end of the molecule is attracted by water molecules. B. By saturating the soap solution with NaCl or KCl, the saturation products of the Na+ and K+ salts of fatty acids are exceeded and most of the soap is precipitated, while glycerin dissolves in water. The alkalinity provided by C. HO- damages the leather, making it difficult to remove dirt.D. Soaps are divided into two as hard and soft according to their consistency. Saturated and single-double-bonded fatty acids are used in hard soap making. Mild soap is obtained from fatty acids containing two or three double bonds.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is incorrect?
