Wiki User
∙ 9y agoThe ratio is not the same. Fatty acids can be saturated or unsaturated, which means that they can have double bonds between the carbons, replacing hydrogen atoms.

What makes a fatty acid an acid?
A Fatty Acid is an archaic name for a Carboxylic Acid. Such an acid is Ethanoic (Acetic) Acid . It has the formula of CH3-C(=O)OH. The 'H' of the 'OH' functional group will dissociate to produce a proportion of hydrogen ions (H^+) in a solution. Equated it is shown as CH3COOH CH3COO^- + H^+ It is the 'H^+' that indicates the acidity.
What macromolecule is often made up of three fatty acids bound to a glycerol molecule?
Lipids or fats are the class of macromolecules made up of fatty acids and glycerol. N, P, C, H, O are the elements that makes them. Lipids has a basic characteristic where it has a hydrophilic head and hydrophobic tail (fatty acid).
What is the function of a fatty acid?
soap oleate....... Fatty acids are the bi products of amino acids. From http://dl.clackamas.cc.or.us/ch106-04/triester.htm "A soap essentially is a fatty acid salt. Usually it is the sodium salt of a fatty acid; sometimes the potassium salt. In either case, they are usually made from the hydrolysis of a fat of some kind to form glycerol and the fatty acid. The addition of the base causes the fatty acid to be converted to the salt of the fatty acid. Then after that has happened, more sodium ion is added (usually in the form of NaCl) to precipitate out the fatty acid salt."
What is the ratio of hydrogen atoms (H) to oxygen atoms (O) in 2 L of water?
Are you serious??? 2:1 no matter what the quantity!
Why all acids contain H ions?
examples of acids which do not contain H ion
How do the number of hydrogen atoms compare to the number of oxygen in each fatty acids?
Bec in each fatty acid the o has a bond with h I think?!
Does Saturated fatty acids have H in all available carbon bond positions on the carbon chain?
yes because all the c atoms are saturated with maximum no. of h atoms.
Does fatty acid have a phosphate group?
Fatty acids contain C, H, O.
What is an acid and why are amino acids and fatty acids called acids?
Acid are those which donates protons (H+). bronsted and lowry theory. amino acids and fatty acids produces protons that's why they are called Acids .
What is the ratio of H atoms to O atoms in water?
3 : 2
What general formula represents all fatty acids?
Fatty acids consist of Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H), and Oxygen (O) arranged as a carbon chain skeleton with a carboxyl group (COOH) at one end. The general formula is: CH3(CH2)xCOOH where x is the number of carbon atoms in the chain.
What fatty acid has had hydrogen atoms chemically added to its carbon chain?
When unsaturated fats, fats containing unsaturated fatty acids, are 'hardened' by chemical H2 addition to the double -CH=CH- bonds in the carbon skeleton, those C atoms become 'saturated' with two H atoms each (i.s.o. one): -CH2-CH2-.
How do the number of hydrogen atoms compared to the number oxygen atoms in each fatty acid?
Bec in each fatty acid the o has a bond with h I think?!
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 are sources of hydrogen ions in the huan body?
Cellular respiration = H+ Cellular metabolism = H+ Anaerobic respiration = H+ Incomplete Oxidation of fatty acids = H+ Hydrolisis of phosphoprotiensn and nucleic acids = H+ H+ = Hydrogen Ion
What three elements make a fatty acid?
what elements are present in all fatty acids
Where are unsaturated fatty acids found?
C
