How are esters prepared in the lab? | In a water bath and using a condenser |
Why is the ester reaction heated using a water bath as opposed to an open flame? | The alcohol used is flammable, this would be dangerous with an open flame |

How are all fats and oils similar? | They are all esters of the same alcohol |
What is this? | Glycerol |
What is used to catalyse the hardening of oils? | Nickel |
What is the hardening of oils? | hydrogenating to reduce the number of C=C bonds, thus reducing the melting point and degree of saturation |
What is a saturated carboxyllic acid? | Carboxyllic acid with no C=C bonds |
What is an unsaturated Carboxyllic acid | Carboxyllic acid with C=C bonds |
