Hydrogenation produces what kinds of fat?
trans fat
What is the process of fat hydrogenation?
The process of fat hydrogenation involves a high temperature and the involvement of a metallic catalyst. The metallic catalyst either increases or decreases the number of the chemical bonds within the molecules of the substances.
What fat is produced through hydrogenation?
The hydrogenation process often uses greater than 1 atmosphere of H2.
What hydrogenation of oil will yield?
saturated fat
Does Hydrogenation increase a fat's susceptibility to rancidity and shortens its shelf life?
Yes, hydrogenation of fat does increase its shelf life. The hydrogenation of the unsaturated fats usually produces the saturated fats.
Does hydrogenation of fat reduce its calorie content?
Not really, no.
What is hydrogenation and why is it done?
Hydrogenation is the proccess that makes unsaturated fat have characteristics of saturated fat. During the process the shape of the fat molecule changes for cis to trans form. This process increases the risk of heart disease.
What is true of trans fat?
Made through the process of hydrogenation
In the process of fat hydrogenation hydrogen atoms are added to which part of the molecule?
carbon
What is the process of adding hydrogen to an unsaturated fatty acid and creating a more solid fat called?
Adding hydrogen to fatty acids is called hydrogenation.
Why is hydrogenation good?
hydrogen is good for yout body
What is it called When hydrogen has been added to unsaturated fats?
The chemical process in which hydrogen atoms are added to unsaturated and polyunsaturated fats is hydrogenation.
