Generally oils are liquid and fats are solid at room temperature
Unsaturated fats, such as oils, are typically liquid at room temperature due to their structure with double bonds that prevent tight packing of molecules. In contrast, saturated fats, which have no double bonds, are usually solid at room temperature.
Fats that have a lot of oleic acid in them, such as unsaturated fats, are liquid at room temperature. They are known to us as oils.
True. Saturated fats have a higher melting point and tend to be solid at room temperature, while unsaturated fats have a lower melting point and are typically liquid oils at room temperature.
"Oil" is a bit of a giveaway there. The distinction between oils and fats is that fats are solid at room temperature, while oils are liquid at room temperature. Nutritionally speaking they're both considered fats.
True A+
Animal fats are lipid materials, both oils and fats. Fats and oils are both made up of triglycerides. Oils are liquid at room temperature and fats are solid.
True A+
Lipids are the group of compounds that include both fats and oils. Lipids are organic molecules characterized by their insolubility in water and their structure, which includes fatty acids. Fats are solid at room temperature, while oils are liquid at room temperature.
Any sort of vegetable oil is usually liquid at room temperature.
"Fatty Acids" take on two 'forms' - 'fats' are from animal sources and are solid at room temperature whereas 'oils' are from plant sources and are liquid at room temperature.
No, you have misunderstoof the definitions. An oil is a lipid that is liquid at room temperature and a fat is a lipid that is solid at room temperature, therefore by definition a fat cannot be an oil at room temperature.
Hydrogenated oils are made from liquid vegetable or seed oils and are created to mimic saturated fats. Saturated fats are those that are solid at room temperature. Hydrogenation, the process of polymerizing liquid fats[oils] by heating and injecting hydrogen gas into them, creates "trans-fats", or solid "plasticated" fats which we now know, (or are told), are worse for us than the saturated fats they were designed to replace. ANY fats that are solid at room temperature are either saturated fats or trans-fats.
