Q

3 ways of Identification of Fats and Oils

A

Saponification Number
Iodine Number
Acid Number

22
Q

no. of mg of KOH required to saponify the free and combined fatty acids in 1g of a given fat

A

Saponification Number

23
Q

indicates the molecular weight of fats/oils and is inversely proportional to it

A

Saponification Number

24
Q

no. of g of iodine absorbed by 100g of fat

A

Iodine Number

25
measure of degree of unsaturation of fat
Iodine Number
26
no. of mg of KOH required to neutralize the fatty acid in 1g of fat
Acid number
27
indicates the degree of rancidity of fats
Acid Number
28
When fatty acids react with base to form salt or soap
Salt formation
29
fatty acids with phosphorus halides to acyl halides
Formation of Halides
30
fatty acids react with alcohol in the presence of a strong acid to ester (triglycerides)
Formation of Esters
31
unsaturated fatty acids undergoes through this in the presence of reducing agents to form saturated fatty acids
Reduction of Hydrogenation
32
when triglycerides interact with the lipase enzyme in the digestive tract of an animal to give fatty acids and glycerol
Hydrolysis
33
triglycerides hydrolized by alkalis obtaining sodium or potassium salts that are then called soaps
Saponification
34
glycerol + salts of fatty acids
Saponification
35
when unsaturated glycerides react with hydrogen in the presence of a metal catalyst to give saturated gycerides
Hydrogenation
36
capability of fats and oils of adding halogens
Halogenation
37
that determines the degree of unsaturation
Halogenation
