The C-H bond in formic acid (hydrogen carbonic acid, mehanoic acid): H-C(=O)(-OH).
All other ones are polar covalent: (=O) and (-O-H)

Fatty acids containing at least one double or triple covalent bond is called?
These fatty acids are called saturated fats. These are often some of the worst fats for the body.
If you isolate a fatty acid with one double bond you know the fatty acid is a?
A monounsaturated fat
A fatty acid that contains a chain of 10 carbons and one double bond is termed a?
A fatty acid that contains a chain of 10 carbons and one double bond is termed monounsaturated, medium chain fatty acid. The process of adding hydrogen too an unsaturated fatty acid and creating a more solid fat is called hydrogenation.
Why is oleic acid not classified as a saturated fatty acid?
because it is a monounsaturated fatty acid... it has one double bond between carbons 9 and 10.
How many double bonds do saturated fatty acids have?
There may be one double bond or many, up to six in important fatty acids.

What causes an unsaturated fatty acids to have a different shape than a saturated fatty acid?
A saturated fatty acid chain is composed of a carbon chain with only single covalent bonds. This creates a tetrahedral geometry of the atoms. An unsaturated fatty acid chain is composed of a carbon chain with one or more double covalent bonds. This creates a trigonal geometry of the atoms at the double covalent bond.
If you isolate a fatty acid with one double bond you know the fatty acid is a?
A monounsaturated fat

When a fatty acid has a double bond at the third carbon from the methyl end what type of fatty acid is it considered?
Any fatty acid that has one or more double bonds is considered unsaturated.
Polyunsaturated fatty acid contains more than one?
Unsaturated bond
What describes a fatty acid that has one double bond?
saturated fat
How many double bonds do saturated fatty acids have?
There may be one double bond or many, up to six in important fatty acids.
What type of bond makes a saturated fat into an unsaturated fat?
An unsaturated fat is a fat or fatty acid in which there is at least one double bond within the fatty acid chain.Saturated fatty acids have no double bonds between the carbon atoms of the fatty acid chain and are thus fully saturated with hydrogen atoms.(Wikipedia)
What is the attractive force that keeps one amino acid attached to another amino acid?
Amino acids are attached to each other via covalent bonds between the organic acid and amine groups. This covalent bond is often called a Peptide Bond.
What is unsaturated lipid?
An unsaturated lipid is a type of fat where there is a minimum of one double bond inside the fatty acid chain. The fatty acid chain may be monounsaturated or polyunsaturated.
