it is unknown the number of hydrogen atoms in a fat molecule but there is still hope that someone knows. if you have a assignment dont worry because someone will know

What fat molecule has the most H atoms?

The fat molecule that has the most H, or hydrogen, atoms is the saturated fat molecule. This is because this particular molecule has no double bonds in its structure.


In the process of fat hydrogenation hydrogen atoms are added to which part of the molecule?

carbon


What is a saturated fat saturated with?

Saturated fats are saturated with hydrogen atoms.


What type of fat is saturated fat?

Saturated fat has all bonding positions where hydrogen atoms could bond occupied by hydrogen atoms.


What fat type has more hydrogen atoms attached to carbon atoms?

unsaturated fat -biology student at U of Manitoba


What atom is not found in either CHO or fat?

Many atoms are not found in 'CHO or fat.' 'Fat' or lipid is a long molecule made up of a string of carbons which are singly or doubly bonded to hydrogens. CHO I would imagine is made up of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Every element that isn't carbon, hydrogen or oxygen is not found in CHO or fat. I have a feeling that this is not the question you meant to ask though.


What are the chemical difference between unsaturated and saturated fat?

All fats contain chains of carbon atoms bonded to hydrogen atoms. In a saturated fat the carbon atoms in the chains are boned to as many hydrogen atoms as possible (that is, 2 each, with the last carbon bonded to 3) and all carbon-carbon bonds are single bonds. In an unsaturated fat some of the carbons are not bonded to the maximum number of hydrogen atoms, and those carbon atoms that are missing hydrogen atoms are double bonded to a neighboring carbon.


How do Trans fats resemble saturated fats in that?

Trans fats are man made by adding hydrogen atoms to vegetable oil. This hydrogenation allows the vegetable oil to remain solid at room temperature just like a saturated animal fat.


Does sugar have more hydrogen than fat?

Fat is not a chemical compound, so it does not have a chemical equation, so it does not have a measured amount of hydrogen. (Sugar has 12 hydrogen atoms.)


With what saturated fat saturated?

Saturated fats are saturated with hydrogen atoms.


What are subunits that make up fat?

Two subunits that make up a fat molecule are glycerol and fatty acids. Glycerol is made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen and fatty acids consist of hydrogen atoms, chains of carbon, and a carboxylic acid group.


What is it called When hydrogen has been added to unsaturated fats?

The chemical process in which hydrogen atoms are added to unsaturated and polyunsaturated fats is hydrogenation.
