It would be a saturated fat.
The number of hydrogens would influence the 'R' group, which determines the fatty acid, because the 'R' group is a hydrocarbon chain, but I am not sure which is the exact fatty acid in this example.
Stearic Acid has the formula C17 H35 COOH
Which means that it contains 35 H atoms in the 'R' group.
Not sure if this is useful at all ! But worth a try.
What else can I help you with?
A saturated fatty has has more or less hydrogen?
Yes, fatty acids are considered saturated when they have all the hydrogen atoms it can hold.
What is fatty substance found in all animal tissue?
cholesterol
Hydrogen bonds hold the hydrogen atoms together in a hydrogen molecule?
Non polar bond between the two hydrogen atoms.
What hold the hydrogen atoms to the oxygen atom?
In a water molecule the hydrogen atoms are held to the oxygen atom by covalent chemical bonds.
Does covalent hold hydrogen and fluorine atoms together?
Polar covalent bond.
What holds the atoms molecule together?
Bonds hold atoms together. There are hydrogen bonds, ionic bonds, and covalent bonds.
What is the difference between a saturated and ' unsaturated fatty acid?
Saturated fatty acids have no double covalent bonds between carbon atoms. The carbon in the chain is saturated with all the hydrogens it can hold. Saturated fatty acids account for the solid nature at room temperature of fats such as lard and butter. Unsaturated fatty acids have double bonds between carbon atoms wherever the number of hydrogens is less than two per carbon atom. Unsaturated fatty acids account for the liquid nature of vegetable oils at room temperature.
What type of bonds hold hydrogen and oxygen together in h20?
Covalent bonds hold hydrogen and oxygen atoms together in a water molecule (H2O). In a covalent bond, atoms share electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.
What are the two molecules that hold onto the electrons of hydrogen until the third step of cellular respiration?
six carbon atoms and six oxygen atoms i believe
What bonds does water form between hydrogen and oxygen?
Water forms polar covalent bonds between hydrogen and oxygen atoms. The oxygen atom attracts electrons more strongly than the hydrogen atoms, leading to a partial negative charge on the oxygen and a partial positive charge on the hydrogen atoms.
How are covalent bonds and hydrogen bonds different in terms of their chemical properties and interactions?
Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms, creating strong connections within molecules. Hydrogen bonds are weaker interactions between molecules, where hydrogen atoms are attracted to electronegative atoms like oxygen or nitrogen. Covalent bonds are stronger and hold atoms together within a molecule, while hydrogen bonds are weaker and contribute to interactions between molecules.
What is a lipid composed of?
Without simplification, lipids are composed of One acid head and One hydrocarbon tail. Lipids are found in two main classes: Oils are from Plant sources and are liquid at room temperature [dog-legged unsaturated lipids - they stack like broken toothpicks] while Fats are from animal sources and are solid at room temperature [straight chained saturated lipids - they stack easily and solidly like straight toothpicks]. With Elemental simplification; Carbon and Oxygen are in the Acid, with Carbon and Hydrogen [and the occasional C=C double unsaturated double bond or two] are in the Tail. Tail monomers are -CH2- there may be anywhere from 13 of these monomers up to 28 of them!
