Answer:

Tricontanyl palmitate: CH₃-(CH₂)₂₉-O-CO-(CH₂)₁₄-CH₃

Explanation:

Beeswax is a tough natural wax which is produced by the worker honey bees. The beeswax is an ester of the long chain fatty acids and alcohols. One of the major components of beeswax is tricontanyl palmitate.

Tricontanyl palmitate is a wax ester that is composed of 16-carbon fatty acid and a 30-carbon alcohol, joined by an ester linkage.

The molecular structure of tricontanyl palmitate is:

CH₃-(CH₂)₂₉-O-CO-(CH₂)₁₄-CH₃
