  1. Triolein is an unsaturated fat, which means that its alkane chains contain double bonds.  Bromine will add across these bonds - the double bond will be broken and a bromine atom will be bonded to each carbon that was in the bond.  See the links for more info.

    Each triolein molecule has 3 unsaturated bonds, and so will consume 3 molecules of bromine.
