Hydrolysis of ATP is needed to release energy‚ thus the hydrolysis reaction that occurs is an exothermic reaction (Crofts‚ 1996). Hydrolysis is the reaction with water whereby a compound is decomposed (Kim‚

commonly used in quality control of fat and oil. Fats and oils are one of the large variety and important sources in the world. It contains acidity which is the result of the degree of breakdown of the triacylglycerols by a chemical reaction known as hydrolysis or lipolysis generally. Fresh and healthy oils or fats may also have significant amounts of acidity. This fact is usually due to the errors during the biosynthesis or extraction of oils from fruits. Oils and fats that produced from low quality fruit

What’s the biological relevance of dehydration and hydrolysis reactions ― that is of being able to assemble polymers from monomers and to disassemble polymers into monomers? Biological polymers (proteins‚ polysaccharides‚ nucleic acids) and lipids are assembled by dehydration synthesis; they are disassembled into their monomers (or into glycerol + fatty acids in the case of lipids) by hydrolysis reactions. 7.

Topic 8a – Carbonyl compounds Revision Notes 1. Introduction • Aldehydes and ketones are carbonyl compounds • They contain the carbonyl group C=O • The functional group in aldehydes is –CHO on the end of a chain e.g. ethanal CH3CHO • The functional group in ketones is C=O not at the end of a chain e.g. propanone CH3COCH3 2. AS Recap • Primary alcohols are oxidised by acidified potassium dichromate. An aldehyde is produced first and this can be further oxidised

1. Functions of Soap Soap primarily serves as a dirt remover and a cleanser. It is used in bathing‚ cleaning‚ and also as a lubricant. Oil‚ grease‚ and other forms of dirt do not dissolve in water. Conversely‚ soap can suspend these in such a way that it can be discarded through its ability to act as an emulsifying agent. This emulsifying agent enables the dispersion of liquid into another immiscible liquid. In this manner‚ oil does not mix with water whereby able to induce dirt. 2. Raw materials

because contact with water would hydrolyze it into acetic acid and hydrogen chloride. In fact‚ if handled in open air it gives off white smoke owing to the hydrolysis from the moisture in the air. The "smoke" is actually small droplets of hydrochloric acid formed by hydrolysis. http://www.chemguide.co.uk/organicprops/amides/background.html Hydrolysis Acetic anhydride dissolves in water to approximately 2.6% by weight.[10] Aqueous solutions have limited stability because‚ like most acid anhydrides
