What are solid lipids at room temperature?
Any lipid that is hydrogenated. Having single carbon carbon bonds lets all the hydrogen bond and allows the lipid to remain a solid at room temperature.
What type of bonding do lipids have?
The type of chemical bonds for lipids are nonpolar C-H bonds. The actual bonds that attach the fatty acids to the glycerol are refered to as ester linkages
What is a saturated lipid?
Each carbon atom in a lipid's fatty acid chain is joined to another carbon atom by a single bond. This is because all carbon atoms have two hydrogen atoms (the maximum possible) linked to each of them. since all the possible hydrogen positions are fulfilled it is termed saturated. If two adjacent carbons lose one hydrogen each the bonds that lost the hydrogen atoms would join together and form an extra bond between the two atoms. Since there is now a possibility to put back two hydrogen atoms, these positions are not filled and so the fat is un-saturated. Saturate=completely fill with no room for more
What is a Part of a fatty acid molecule that consists of 1 carbon atom joined to the OH group by a single bond and to an oxygen atom by a double bond?
Carboxyl group
What is the chemical formula for LDL?
LDL (low density lipids) is a mixture of several lipids so it can not be represented by a single formula.
What are lipids joined to another carbon atom by a single bond?
saturated hydrocarbons
What is a carbon atom in a lipids fatty acid chain that is joined to another carbon atom by a single bond?
saturated.....jeez
Each atom in a lipids fatty acid chain is joined to another carbon atom by a single bond?
saturation (:
What kind of lipid is joined to another carbon atom by a single bond?
salt
What has carbon atoms joined by single bonds?
If the compounds only contain carbon and hydrogen, they are called alkanes.
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 is it called when all carbon atoms are joined by single covalent bonds?
Saturated
How many bonds can a carbon molecule form with another carbon?
Molecule to another carbon- none! Carbon carbon bonds can be single double or triple
A Hydrocarbon in which all of the carbon atoms are joined to other carbon atoms by single covalent bonds are a saturated unsaturated aromatic or substituted hydrocarbon?
such a hydrocarbon is a saturated compound.
Why is a saturated hydrocarbon an organic compound which contains hydrogen and carbon joined?
The bond is covalent; the meaning of saturated is a single bond between carbon atoms (C-C).
What are solid lipids at room temperature?
