Both of them are just very similar I think.

Unsaturated fats contain more what bonds than saturated fats?
double
What molecule has energy trapped in its bonds?
I believe all atomic bonds contain energy. Some more than others (especially double bonds).
What bonds do unsaturated fats contain more of than saturated fats?
double bonds. My sources: I got it right on my quiz. (:
Does saturated hydrocarbons contain one carbon to carbon double bond?
no only saturated oils have double bonds i hope i answered your question correctly *****************2nd Opinion************** Yes, unsaturated oils can accept more hydrogen atoms into their structure, by virtue of having at least one double bond. Yes, unsaturated oils have at least one double bond.
Which type of fatty acids has two or more carbon double bonds?
Fatty acids that contain carbon atoms linked by double or triple bonds are unsaturated. They do not have the maximum number of hydrogen atoms possible.
Why double bond is more reactive then triple bond?
because when there is a double bond, there is a Pi bond involved. and Pi bonds are weaker than sigma bonds (which are in single bonds) WRONG. While it is true that Pi bonds are weaker than Sigma bonds, double bonds (C = C) contain BOTH Pi and Sigma bonds making double bonds stronger than single bonds (which contain only a Sigma bond) overall.
Are alkenes saturated or unsaturated?
No, they are unsaturated as they contain double bonds
What is the difference between a saturated and an unsaturated fatty acids?
Saturated fatty acid molecules have no carbon-carbon double bonds, and all of the remaining carbon bonds are shared by hydrogen atoms, except the one in the carboxyl group, at the beginning of the chain.Unsaturated fatty acid molecules also begin with the carboxyl group, but contain one or more carbon-carbon double bonds, and may contain one or more carbon atoms with a bonding electron that remains unassociated.
Does the cavity inside a coconut contain milk?
No, it contains "coconut water". Depending on the age of the coconut, it may be slightly milky or more watery, but it's not milk or even "coconut milk", which is made from the meat of the coconut.
What is the the difference in the composition of saturated fat and unsaturated fat?
The chemical structure of saturated lipids is fully saturated with hydrogen atoms, and does not contain double bonds between carbon atoms where as the chemical structure of an unsaturated lipid contains double bonds.
Which group of hydrocarbons contain one or more double bonds between carbon atoms?
Cycloheptene is an example http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycloheptene
Does an organic compound have double or single covalent bonds?
Yes organic molecules can have single bonds, double bonds and triple bonds. Larger molecules, more than two carbons, always have single bonds and may have double and triple.
