Glycerols IUPAC name is:

Propane-1,2,3-triol.

Long chained Carboxylic Acids are known as:

Fatty Acids.

Glycerol + Fatty acids:




1) Form?


2) These are more commonly known as?

1) Tri-esters.


2) Fats & Oils.

Fats:




1) Bonds in the chain are?


2) Intermolecular forces?


– So?


3) Standard State?

1) Mainly saturated, so they don't have double bonds.


2) High Van Der Waals as the chains are 'packed nicely'.


– So they have a high melting point.


3) Solid at room temperature.

Oils:




1) Bonds in the chain are?


2) Intermolecular forces?


– So?


3) Standard State?

1) Unsaturated - they have double bonds in them.


2) Low VDW becasue the chains don't 'pack nicely'.


– So they have low melting points. (this is why they're liquids at room temperature.


3) Liquids.

Base Hydrolysis of Tri Esters (Fats and oils):




1) Reagent?


2) Use of the salt formed?


3) Equation?


4) To turn this product into a fatty acid?

1) Dilute NaOH.


2) Soaps and Shampoos.


3) Tri-Ester + 3NaOH --> Glycerol + 3Carboxylate Salts.


4) Add HCl.

Forming Bio Diesels:




1) Type of reaction?


2) Reactants?


3) Products?


4) Catalyst?





1) Base Hydrolysis.


2) Vegetable oil (Tri-ester) & Methanol.


3) Glycerol and methyl esters.


4) Strong basic catalyst e.g. KOH.
