a glycerol molecule and three 2-pentenoic acid molecules are shown. delete atoms and add bonds as necessary to form a triacylglycerol (triglyceride). draw only the triacylglycerol product.



Answer :

The compound that is formed by the combination of the pentenoic acid  and the  glycerol molecule is shown in the image attached.

What is the triglyceride?

We know that the way in which a fat is formed is by the reaction between a fatty acid and glycerol. The fatty acid is known to contain the acid group which can then be able to couple with the glycerol molecule and then be able to form the triglyceride.

Let us look at the compound as it has been shown in the image that have been attached to this answer. We can see that there is the glycerol molecule which contains three -OH groups and these are the -OH groups that would finally combine with the acid groups in the compounds of the fatty acids in an acid base reaction. Molecules of water are lost in the reaction.
