Is Stearic acid a trans fatty acid?
No, stearic acid is a saturated fatty acid found in various animal and plant fats. It is not considered a trans fatty acid, which are mostly found in partially hydrogenated oils.
Is trans fat an unsaturated fatty acid that has been changed to a polyunsaturated fatty acid?
Trans fat is a type of unsaturated fatty acid, but it is not simply a changed polyunsaturated fatty acid. Instead, trans fats are created through a process called hydrogenation, which converts liquid vegetable oils into solid fats. This process alters the chemical structure of the fatty acids, resulting in trans isomers that can have negative health effects. Therefore, while trans fats are unsaturated, they are distinct from polyunsaturated fatty acids.

What acid present in litchi fruit?
Litchis contain a lot of Protein & Amino Acids. They also give us essential fatty acids like Omega - 3 and 6 fatty acids, trans-polyenoic fatty acids, trans-monoenoic fatty acids etc.
What what is trans fat?
Trans fats are saturated fats used to extend the shelf life of manys foods. Trans fats are responsible for lowering good cholesterol and raising bad cholestrol.
Do trans or cis fatty acids have a higher melting point?
The trans fatty acid has a higher melting point. The trans isomer is straighter in shape and this allows the molecules to be packed closer together. The molecules are hence held together by greater Van der Waal's force.
How does the saturation level of a fatty acid compare to that of an unsaturated fatty acid and a trans fatty acid?
The saturation level of a fatty acid refers to the number of hydrogen atoms attached to the carbon chain. A saturated fatty acid has all available carbon bonds filled with hydrogen atoms, making it solid at room temperature. Unsaturated fatty acids have one or more double bonds between carbon atoms, making them liquid at room temperature. Trans fatty acids are a type of unsaturated fatty acid with a specific arrangement of double bonds that can increase the saturation level, making them behave more like saturated fats.
Which one of the following is a trans fatty acid found in most snack food?
Stearic acid is found in butter not snack food... Elaidic acid is the answer
When A type of fatty acid with odd molecular shapes that is created when oils are partly hydrogenated?
