The saturated fat is solid at room temperature. It is typically an animal fat. The unsaturated fat is liquid at room temperature and this is typically found in plants.

What type of bond determines whether a lipid will be solid or liquid at room temperature?

The type of bond that determines whether a lipid will be solid or liquid at room temperature is the presence of double bonds in its fatty acid tails. Lipids with saturated fatty acids (no double bonds) tend to be solid at room temperature, while lipids with unsaturated fatty acids (one or more double bonds) tend to be liquid at room temperature.


Is body fat solid or liquid?

A fat can be a solid or a liquid. Normally we refer to a liquid fat as an 'oil', but this is for a fatty compound that is liquid at room temperature. All fats can be liquified or solidified, and will still be called 'fats' no matter what.

Are All lipids are solid at room temperature?

No. Lipids is a general term for various types of fatty acids. If a lipid is saturated, then it is a saturated fat and is solid at room temperature (saturated means it has the maximum number of hydrogen atoms attached to the carbon atoms in the atomic structure). If the lipid is unsaturated, then it is an oil that is a liquid at room temperature. Remember: lipids are a broad term covering any fat soluble substances such as fats, oils, fat soluble vitamins, waxes, etc. No! Lipids are a big - and kinda vague - group. Between them, they vary greatly in their physical properties. Oleic acid, a very common lipid, is liquid at room temperature. I'm sure there are many, many more that are the same way.
