(a)
Interpretation:
Whether the saturated fatty acid typifies as a fat, an oil, or both is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
A lipid is a compound which is made up of an alcohol and one or more carboxylic acids. Lipids are found in fats and vegetable oils. Fats and oil are formed by the esters of glycerol. Fatty acids are the triglycerides formed from the reaction between three long chain carboxylic acids and glycerol joined by three ester linkages.
(b)
Interpretation:
Whether the unsaturated fatty acid typifies as a fat, an oil, or both is to be stated.
