A type of fatty acid that is missing one hydrogen atom?
monounsaturated
What does a unsaturated fatty acid look like?
Refer to the related links for an illustration of a saturated fatty acid. It is an illustration of a saturated fatty acid. There are three saturated fatty acids.
What is the kind of lipid that each carbon atom in a lipids fatty acid chain joined to another carbon atom by a single bond?
a saturated fatty acid
Where would you find hydrogen bonds proteins?
The most common bond in hydrogen is a compound one.
What are saturated fatty acids saturated with?
They have the maximum number of hydrogen atoms.
What is the difference between a saturaded and unsaturaded fatty acid?
The difference between a saturated and unsaturated fatty acid are the number of hydrogen atoms and double carbon bonds in the fatty acid chain. A saturated fatty acid has no carbon double bonds, two hydrogen atoms for each carbon atom along the chain and three for the carbon atom at each end. In an unsaturated fatty acid chain some of the hydrogen atoms are replaced by a double bond between neighboring carbon atoms. Mon-unsaturated and poly-unsaturated fatty acids differ in the number of double carbon bonds in the chain, and thus the total number of hydrogen atoms.
How many double bonds do saturated fatty acids have?
There may be one double bond or many, up to six in important fatty acids.
A type of fatty acid that is missing one hydrogen atom?
monounsaturated
Difference between a saturated fatty acid and an unsaturated fatty acid?
Fatty acid is a carboxylic acid with a long aliphatic tail (chain), which is either saturated or unsaturated. A saturated fatty acid contains the maximum amount of hydrogen atoms. Saturated fatty acids are long-chain carboxylic acids that generally have between 12 and 24 carbon atoms and have no double bonds. They are saturated with hydrogen because saturated fatty acids have only single bonds, each carbon atom within the chain has 2 hydrogen atoms. Unsaturated fatty acids do not contain the maximum amount of hydrogen atoms, therefore two or more carbon atoms are attached with a double bond. Unsaturated fatty acids have one or more double bonds between carbon atoms.
A fatty acid which has all possible hydrogen atoms bonding to each carbon atom would be?
Lipids
Saturated fatty acids are so named because they are saturated with?
The saturated fatty acids have only single bonds between atom carbons; the chain is saturated with hydrogen atoms.
What are O-H Bonds?
Covalent bonds between a hydrogen atom and an oxygen atom.
What types of bonds are present in perchloric acid?
HCllO4 Covalently bonded, atom to atom. Hydrogen is covalently bonded to the internally covalently bonded polyatomic ion perchlorate.
What does a unsaturated fatty acid look like?
Refer to the related links for an illustration of a saturated fatty acid. It is an illustration of a saturated fatty acid. There are three saturated fatty acids.
How many hydrogen bonds does Oxygen have?
Oxygen doesn't have any hydrogen bonds. A hydrogen bond is when a hydrogen atom is bonded with an electronegative atom, such as oxygen. Oxygen all by itself does not have hydrogen bonded to it. It is simply written as 02.
What is the kind of lipid that each carbon atom in a lipids fatty acid chain joined to another carbon atom by a single bond?
a saturated fatty acid
Hydrogen bonds form?
When the atom hydrogen bonds directly to a small atom with a high electronegativity such as nitrogen, oxygen and fluorine. The Hydrogen atom then has a slightly positive charge and the other atom a slightly negative charge. This causes forces of attraction between molecules which is known as hydrogen bonding.
