What is the test used for identifying lipids?
A number of tests are used to test lipids including Suddan III test , emulsion test , solubility test , soapanification test .
What do you conclude about the solubility of lipids in polar solvents such as water?
Lipids are non-polar molecules that DO NOT usually dissolve in water but DO usually dissolve in organic solvents. Lipids are fat molecule and think about adding eg oil (fat) to water. They don't mix. You always need an emulsifier (eg soap)
What excretory product are eliminated through the seed of groundnuts?
LatexM
What is a sentence with solubility in it?
The solubility of the phone was beat up.
Which solvent has the greatest lipid solubility Why do you think this?
The best lipid solvents are Hexane, Ethyl Alcohol and Methyl Alcohol. This is because lipids are nonpolar and hydrophobic. Hexane has the highest hydrophobicity of any solvent and is thus the best at dissolving hydrophobic molecules.
Classification of lipids?
There are several classification that pertain to lipids. Some of these are simple lipids, compound lipids and derived lipids. Lipids are sterols, fats, waxes and fat-soluble vitamins.

Are lipids water soluable?
The lipids are a large and diverse group of naturally occurring organic compounds that are related by their solubility in nonpolar organic solvents (e.g. ether, chloroform, acetone & benzene) and general insolubility in water.
How can you show generalization is correct?
No. A generalization cannot be proved correct. Even this generalization about a generalization could be incorrect. Anywho, and generalization could never be proven correct.

What does hasty generalization?
Hasty generalization is a logical fallacy of faulty generalization by reaching an inductive generalization based on insufficient evidence.
Solubility of pb with lipids?
The lipid glycerol is soluble in both water and ether. Olive oil is soluble in ether, but not water. A solid lipid is insoluble in water, methanol, and ether.

How to summarize the difference between a hasty generalization and a valid generalization?
A faulty generalization is a statement that's not true while a valid generalization is a true statement.
What is generalization?
*A generalization is a statement about several things or people *clue words to identify generalization * Valid generalization: fact support or prove and (true) generalization *clue words in a sentence to make a generalization: never,all,sometimes,most,always,none,everybody,everone,society,some,almost,only,empty *Faulty generalization: (not true) generalization (can not) be proven or supported with a fact.
Does not dissolve in a liquid?
Lipids are nonpolar and insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol though.
