Contrary to legend, camels do not store water in their humps; these humps actually consist of large fat deposits. How can these fat deposits serve as source of water? Calculate the amount of water (in litres) that a camel can produce from 1.0 kg of fat. Assume for simplicity that the fat consists exclusively of tripalmitoylglycerol.
