A triglyceride is a molecule that contains a glycerol group and three fatty acids linked by an ester linkage. A fatty acid is a molecule formed by a long linear hydrocarbon chain, of different length or number of carbon atoms, at the end of which is a carboxyl group. These chains can be saturated (with hydrogen) or when there are double bonds in the chain this reduces the available places of hydrogen that's why it's called unsaturated.
In the image you can see on the right the glycerol group. And the three fatty acids extending to the left. The top one is an example of a saturated fatty acid, and the two below unsaturated.
Triglycerides are generally solid at room temperature and are therefore called fats. For example, the fat that constitutes us is mostly formed by triglycerides.
Answer: Diffusion is the movement of particles from a high to low particle concentration, while osmosis is the movement of water from a high to a low water concentration.
A covalent bond is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs, and the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms, when they share electrons, is known as covalent bonding.
The liquid collected during distillation when the evaporated substance condenses. A separation technique that uses evaporation to separate substances. The mixture is heated so that one substance evaporates. The vapour is collected and condenses into a liquid.
