Those fatty acids which have several double bonds are called unsaturated fatty acids, for e.g, palmitoleic acid is of 16 carbon and contain one double bond at 9th position, Linoleic acid is consist of 18 carbon and have two double bond at 9th and 12th position respectively. Another is Arachidonic acid which is 20 carbon long and contain 4 double bonds on 5,8,11,14 position Unsaturated fatty acids are liquid at room temprature, and are loosley packed as compare to saturated fatty acids.
Unsaturated fats. These double bonds make the long chain bent and so the lipids molecules don't fit together very well so they do not maked dense organised solids. This means they form liquids called oils.
I am upset because I asked the internet to answer this question for me. Now I have to use books, then tell the Internet.
The answer is Unsaturated.
Unsaturated fats contain C=C double bonds in their fatty acid tails. If more than one double bond exist, the fat is known as 'polyunsaturated.'
A fat with one double bond is a monounsaturated fat, while one with two or more is a polyunsaturated fat. They are both examples of unsaturated fats.
monounsaturated fat
The word is "unsaturated".
These are saturated fats.
linoleic acid
Carbon will normally form four covalent bonds.These are normally one of several possible hybridizationsof the s and p orbitals.
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.
The first double bond is between the third and fourth carbons from the methyl (CH3) end of the fatty acid molecule.
The two basic types of fatty acids are saturated and unsaturated. A fatty acid consists of a hydrocarbon chain and a carboxyl group: CH3(CH2)nCOOH Saturated fatty acids have only single bonds between the carbon atoms in the hydrocarbon chain ie the molecule is "saturated" with hydrogen atoms and no more can be added. Unsaturated fatty acids have one or more double bonds between the carbon atoms in the hydrocarbon chain. Fatty acids with a single double bond are called monounsaturated. Fatty acids with two or more double bonds are called polyunsaturated. See:http://users.rcn.com/jkimball.ma.ultranet/BiologyPages/F/Fats.html
saturated fatty acids contain more carbon atoms Saturated fatty acids have single carbon-to-carbon bonds.
The bond between the carbon atoms is a double bond.
Because carbon has a double bond gving it double the strength
A double carbon bond is a covalent bond. Also carbon atoms can form double bonds. Carbon shares electrons with other atoms.
It will have one carbon double bond
The bond between carbon and hydrogen atoms is covalent.
These are unsaturated organic compounds.
In chemistry, a double bond is a covalent bond between two atoms involving four bonding electrons as opposed to two in a single bond. Double bonds occur most commonly between two carbon atoms, for example in alkenes. Many double bonds exist between two different elements: for example, in a carbonyl group between a carbon atom and an oxygen atom.
Hydro carbon having a double bond between 2 carbon atoms are called olifins .
There are 10 hydrogen atoms in an unbranched alkene with 1 double bond and 5 Carbon atoms
A single bond between two carbon atoms consists of a sigma bond. (There are 2 carbon atoms sharing 2 electrons. They are tied together by a sigma bond). A double bond between two carbon atoms consists of a sigma bond and a pi bond. (There are 2 carbon atoms sharing 4 electrons.) A triple bond between two carbon atoms consists of one sigma bond and two pi bonds. (There are 2 carbon atoms sharing 6 electrons). apex one, two, one, one
Yes - carbon dioxide is 3 atoms and is O=C=O.
When a double bond is placed between two carbon atoms in oelic acid, the shape of the molecule tends to bend. This is a similar occurrence of shape changing in general with fatty acids when a double bond forms
