Study Notes

Oil Spot Test

Determines the presence of triglycerides in a sample, specifically detecting the presence of oils or fats

Iodine Value Test

Measures the degree of unsaturation in a fatty acid, indicating the number of double bonds present
Higher iodine values indicate more unsaturated fatty acids

Alkaline Potassium Permanganate Test

Tests for the presence of glycerol in a sample
Pink color persisting indicates the presence of glycerol

Emulsion Formation Test

Adds NaOH and water to the oil to determine its ability to form an emulsion
Purpose is to identify the type of oil present, as some oils form emulsions with NaOH, while others do not

Detection of Glycerol Test

Flame heating is used to detect the presence of glycerol in a sample
The purpose of flame heating is to produce a characteristic smell of acrolein, indicating the presence of glycerol
