What type of fatty acids dose butter contain and how do you know?
Butter contains saturated fatty acids. We can know this because saturated fatty acids are solid at room temperature, and butter is solid at room temperature.
Are fatty acids with double bonds saturated or not?
Fatty acids containing double bonds are unsaturated fatty acids as they still contain sp2 carbon atoms within them.
If a fat contains mostly saturated fatty acids it is likely to be a what?
a solid.
What is true of all saturated fatty acids?
They contain no [unsaturated] C-C double bonds.
Unsaturated fatty acids that have changed to saturated fatty acids are called?
trans fat
What group of organic compounds contain fatty acids?
Fatty acids contain carboxyl groups. The functional group of fatty acids is -COOH. There are 2 types of fatty acids called saturated and non saturated.
Distinguish between saturated fatty acids and saturated fatty acids?
There is no difference between saturated fatty acids and saturated fatty acids. If you meant saturated fatty acids and UNsaturated fatty acids, then the unsaturated ones are the ones with double (or, theoretically, triple) bonds in the carbon chain.
What type of fatty acids dose butter contain and how do you know?

What are names for saturated fatty acids?

Why do saturated fatty acids have straight structure while unsaturated fatty acids have bent structure?
saturated fatty acids contain more carbon atoms Saturated fatty acids have single carbon-to-carbon bonds.
Chemical that contain carbon and hydrogen are called?
Hydrocarbons
What kind of bonding is necessary to produce a saturated fatty-acid?
Unlike unsaturated fatty acids, which contain double carbon bonds, saturated fatty acids have enough hydrogen bonded to their carbon atoms so that they can only have single bonds.
What is true of all saturated fatty acids?
They contain no [unsaturated] C-C double bonds.
Are oils saturated or unsaturated?
Oils contain both unsaturated and saturated fatty acids. See Related Links. Most oils are lower in saturated fatty acids than some solid shortenings or animal fats - except for the tropical oils.
Why is beef fat a solid at room temperature?
This is because it contains more saturated fatty acids then unsaturated fatty acids. Saturated fatty acids have a higher melting point then unsaturated fatty acids.
