What kind of chemical bond is found in lipids?
mostly covalent bonds as lipids are organic molecules
Lipids that you refer to as oils have?
High degree of unsaturated bonds
Do all lipids have atoms linked by nonpolar covalent bonds?
Lipids are held together by non polar bonds but also have a few polar bonds between carbon and oxygen. But because the rest of a lipid molecule is nonpolar this contributes little to physical properties.
Explain the difference between saturated and unsaturated lipids?
The difference is related to which long chain fatty acid is incorporated. If it is a fatty acid that has double bonds, then it is an unsaturated lipid. If it contains fatty acids that have no double bonds, then it is a saturated lipid.
What contains peptide bonds lipids proteins or nucleic acid?
Amino acids from proteins.
What type of fat bonds carbonhydrogen chains?
unsaturated
Are lipids found in bonds?
No, peptide bonds are between amino acids in proteins.

Carbohydratyes store more energy in bonds between its atoms than lipids?
No. Long chains of hydrocarbons, basically what lipids are, store much more energy in the bonds than carbohydrates do.
What type of bonding do lipids have?
The type of chemical bonds for lipids are nonpolar C-H bonds. The actual bonds that attach the fatty acids to the glycerol are refered to as ester linkages

What fatty acids do not have double bonds beween carbons?
If there are no double bonds, then carbon will take up as many hydrogens as it can, two (three on the ends). Because there are more hydrogens bonded, they are referred to as "saturated" lipids. Unsaturated lipids have double bonds between the carbons and hydrogens. When there is a double bond, one carbon only bonds with one hydrogen - "unsaturated" lipids. The double bonds cause "kinks" in the fatty acid tails, so it is more difficult to "pack" them together. For this reason, they do not solidify at room temperature. However, saturated lipids may solidify at room temperature -- this is how you distinguish between saturated and unsaturated lipids by sight. Examples of saturated lipids (having no double bonds between carbons and hydrogens) are animal fats. "Saturated fats" is a synonym for animal fat on nutritional labels.

Carbohydrates and lipids are very large organic molecules Which two bonds do you expect to find most in these molecules?
ANSWER: nonpolar cavalent bonds and polar covalent bonds
Energy is stored in the chemical bonds of lipids?
This is true for e2020 users.
