Vedclass · Answer

(B) Triglycerides are esters of glycerol with three fatty acids. Fats that are solid at room temperature are typically composed of saturated fatty acids,which allow for tighter packing of molecules. Butter is a classic example of a solid triglyceride (fat) at room temperature. In contrast,oils like coconut oil are liquid at room temperature due to a higher proportion of unsaturated fatty acids. Therefore,the correct option is $B$.

Column-$I$	Column-$II$
$(1)$ Stearic acid	$(a)$ $CH_3-(CH_2)_2COO^-$
$(2)$ Butyric acid	$(b)$ $CH_3-(CH_2)_{16}COO^-$
$(3)$ Palmitic acid	$(c)$ $R-COOH$
$(4)$ Fatty acid	$(d)$ $CH_3(CH_2)_{14}COO^-$
