Answer: The products of the saponification of glyceryl tripalmitate (tripalmitin) are one molecule of glycerol and three molecules of sodium salt of palmitic acid.

Explanation:

A chemical reaction in which triglycerides react with sodium hydroxide and leads to the formation of one molecule of glycerol and three molecules of a salt of fatty acid is known as saponification.

For example, when tripalmitin reacts with sodium hydroxide then it leads to the formation of one molecule of glycerol and three molecules of sodium salt of palmitic acid.

The reaction equation is as follows.

   C_{51}H_{98}O_{6} + NaOH \rightarrow C_{3}H_{8}O_{3} + 3C_{16}H_{31}O_{2}Na^{+}

Thus, we can conclude that the products of the saponification of glyceryl tripalmitate (tripalmitin) are one molecule of glycerol and three molecules of sodium salt of palmitic acid.

How many moles are present in 3.4 x 1023 atoms of Na?
Andrej [43]
<h3><u>moles of H2SO4</u></h3>

Avogadro's number (6.022 × 1023) is defined as the number of atoms, molecules, or "units of anything" that are in a mole of that thing. So to find the number of moles in 3.4 x 1023 molecules of H2SO4, divide by 6.022 × 1023 molecules/mole and you get 0.5646 moles but there are only 2 sig figs in the given so we need to round to 2 sig figs. There are 0.56 moles in 3.4 x 1023 molecules of H2SO4

Note the way this works is to make sure the units are going to give us moles. To check, we do division of the units just like we were dividing two fractions:

(molecules of H2SO4) = (molecules of H2SO4)/1 and so we have 3.4 x 1023/6.022 × 1023 [(molecules of H2SO4)/1]/[(molecules of H2SO4)/(moles of H2SO4)]. Now, invert the denominator and multiply:

Answer:

Option C.

Ilegal dumping of waste

Explanation:

This is because non point source of pollution refers to source of pollution that are many and not directly one which is illegal or does not meet the legal term. This type of pollution does not have a point source, it has many sources and this type of pollution is cause by rainfall or precipitation. Where when the rain fall, it wash away the waste through to water bodies, causing pollution and endangering water bodies.
