LABORATORY REPORT 4 - FATTY

ACIDS
Methodology
In a 250 mL beaker, place 150 mL
of water on the heating plate,
With the 10 mL place tubes A and B inside the
graduated cylinder, beaker and heat until the
place 5 mL of soybean temperature of the water reaches
oil in a test tube and 60°C (measured with the Brannan
mark it as A. alcohol thermometer).
Return the tubes to the beaker,
maintaining the temperature at
60°C and with the help of a
chronometer, measure the time in
which the substances recover their
original color. The shorter the
recovery time, the higher the
unsaturation.

Take out the test tubes and to each
With the 10 mL graduated one add 5 drops of the iodine
cylinder, place 5 mL of solution, shake until a uniform shade
coconut oil (previously is obtained, holding the tubes with
melted by the laboratory one hand and tapping lightly with the
index and middle fingers of the other
