Saturated. This is because with no carbon-carbon double bonds the bonding sites are taken up by hydrogen, thus saturated. These saturated fats are solider tha unsaturated fats containing carbon-carbon double bonds.

Saturated Fat. The double bond occurs when you remove a hydrogen, so when a fat is fully hydrogenated it has no double bonds.

Is unsaturated fat a polymer?

No, unsaturated fat is not a polymer. It is a type of fat molecule that has double bonds in its carbon chain, making it different from polymers, which are large molecules made up of repeating units called monomers.


What are fats containing two or more double bonds between carbon atoms?

This type of lipid is referred to as an unsaturated lipid, ( or fat). Lipids are long chains of carbon carbon bonds. When a double bond forms they are not able to pack together as closely due to a kink in the structure.


How many double bonds in saturated fat acid?

Saturated fatty acids do not contain any double bonds. They have all single bonds between carbon atoms in the hydrocarbon chain.


Does fat have each of its carbon atoms joined to another carbon atom by a single bond?

In a saturated fat, yes. Monounsaturated fat has a double bond. Polyunsaturated fats have multiple double bonds.


What fatty acid has no double bonds between carbon atoms?

fatty acid which are saturated have no double bond


Fatty acid have multiple double bonds?

Long-chain-fatty-acids that contains no C=C( double bonds) is called saturated all carbon to carbon bonds are single . Fatty acid that possesses one C=C ( double bond ) is called mono-unsaturated eg oleic acid , one that has two or more C=C double bonds is called poly-unsaturated eg. arachidonic acid .
