Which bond is formed when a fatty acid is attached to a glycerol molecule? 2 of 8 QU

1 answer:

4 0

Answer: Heyo Kenji Here! Here's your answer- In a fat molecule, the fatty acids are attached to each of the three carbons of the glycerol molecule with an ester bond through the oxygen atom. During the ester bond formation, three molecules are released. Since fats consist of three fatty acids and a glycerol, they are also called triacylglycerols or triglycerides.

Explanation: Hope this helps!

Have a nice day!

1. In an equilibrium experiment, acetic acid (which is a weak acid) is mixed with sodium acetate (a soluble salt), with methyl o

Explanation:

It is known that acetic acid is a weak acid. It's equilibrium of dissociation will be represented as follows.

$CH_{3}COOH(aq) + H_{2}O(l) \rightleftharpoons CH_{3}COO^{-}(aq) + H_{3}O^{+}(aq)$

On the other hand, sodium acetate ( $CH_{3}COONa$ ) is a salt of weak acid, that is, $CH_{3}COOH$ and strong base, that is, NaOH. Therefore, aqueous solution of sodium acetate will be basic in nature.

Since, acetic acid is a weak acid but still it is an acid. So, when methyl orange is added in a solution of acetic acid then it given a reddish-orange color because of its acidity.

When sodium acetate is mixed into this solution then it will dissociate as follows.

$CH_{3}COO^{-}Na^{+}(aq) \rightleftharpoons CH_{3}COO^{-}(aq) + Na^{+}(aq)$

As both solutions are liberating acetate ion upon dissociation. Hence, it is the common ion.

So, when more acetate ions will increase from dissociation of sodium acetate the according to Le Chatelier's principle the equilibrium will shift on left side.

As a result, there will be decrease in the concentration of hydronium ions. As a result, there will be increase in the pH of the system.

Hence, color of methyl orange will change from reddish orange to yellow. This shift in equilibrium is due to the common ion which is $CH_{3}COO^{-}$ ion.

Difference between dipole dipole and hydrogen bonding

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Hydrogen bonds are stronger than the dipole dipole attraction force present in any molecule.

<h3>What is bonding in molecules?</h3>

Bonding is a type of attraction force which is present between the different atoms or elements of any substance.

Dipole dipole attraction force is a weak force as compared to the hydrogen bonding and present between any two oppositely charged atoms.
Hydrogen bond is present between the hydrogen atom and more electronegative atoms like O, S, N and F.

Hence main difference is that hydrogen bond is only present between the hydrogen atom and more electronegative.
