Structure of cocoa butter has to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Triacylglycerols are lipids that are formed by two or more similar or different fatty acids. They are also called triglycerides and are hydrophobic and nonpolar in nature. Addition of glycerol and three similar or different fatty acids results into triesters that is also triacylglycerols. The general reaction for the synthesis of triacylglycerol is as follows:
