Triglycerides are found in the fats and oils you eat. They are produced in a condensation reaction between a glycerol and 3 fatty acids. So, is it possible to reverse this reaction? Can we add water to a triglyceride to break it up into glycerol and 3 fatty acids?
Good question!
AUS-e-TUTE has new resources to help you understand the hydrolysis of triglycerides.
