Lipids
The heterogeneous classes of organic compounds that are not water-soluble but are dissolved in organic solvents that are non-polar in nature are termed lipids. They are a long chain of fatty acids and esters of alcohols. Lipids are generally seen in seve…
Glycerophospholipid
Glycerophospholipid is the most abundantly occuring phospholipids found in the biological membranes. Lipids include a group of organic compounds like fats, hormones, oils, waxes, vitamins etc. They are non-polar molecules and are insoluble in water. Lipi…
Structure Of Camphor
A terpene with the molecular formula of C10H16O is a waxy, white color solid known as camphor. It is flammable. It also possesses a very pungent taste and a strong odor. There are various sources for extracting camphor from natural products such as the …
Glycolipid In Organic Chemistry
Glycolipids are lipids that are an important class of organic compounds in chemistry that have simple to complex applications. They contain carbohydrates, fatty acids, sphingolipids or a glycerol group. In other words, they are the modifications of lipid…
Diterpenoid
The terpenoid class includes diterpenoids, which are chemical compounds with 20 carbon atoms. They are made up of four isoprene units and are derived from geranylgeraniol, a C20 precursor. They have a C20H32 basic structure. These characteristics disting…

Chapter 17, Problem 17.91CQ
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: We need to find the effect of adding NaOH to glyceryltriesterate and give the chemical equation for the reaction

Concept Introduction: Glyceryltriesterate is an ester. Generally when esters react with bases, the ester bond breaks and constituent alcohols and acid salts are formed. Here also glyceryltriesterate will react with NaOH to produce stearic acid and glycerol.

To determine:

a. NaOH reacts with glyceryltriesterate

b. Write a chemical equation for the reaction

c. ml of.5 M NaOH is needed to saponify 10 g of glyceryltriesterate
