Explanation / Answer

1]

Fats are contain more unsaturated fatty acid residues than saturated fatty acid residues are more likely to be liquid at room temperature

It is true

Fats that contain more saturated fatty acid residues than unsaturated fatty acid residues are more likely to be solid. Saturated fatty acids are solid at room temperature, because they stack nicely together and form more hydrogen bonds Saturated fats are more likely than unsaturated fats to be solid at room temperature

2]

Triacylglycerols are composed of fatty acid residues and glycerol

It is true

3]

Unsaturated fats have higher melting points than do saturated fats

False

Unsaturated fatty acids lead to lower melting points as well as lower freezing points, remaining as a liquid at room temperature.

4]

Unsaturated fats are more likely than saturated fats to be liquid at room temperature

It is true

5]

Triacylglycerols always contain three identical fatty acids

It is false

Triacylglycerols molecule may contain either three identical fatty acid or more frequently different combination of fatty acid
