Question
Chapter 26, Problem 8P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The balanced reaction equation involving the glycerol and fatty acidsfor the formation of triacylglycerol should be determined.
Concept introduction:
Lipids are the organic material which is soluble in some organic solvents whereas insoluble in water. These include different types of compounds such as phospholipids, fats, and steroids. These play important functions in a cell. Examples of some common lipids are a vegetable oil, butter, cholesterol, and other steroids, waxes, phospholipids, and fat-soluble vitamins.
