What else can I help you with?
What color does bromine water change when you mix it with unsaturated fat?
Bromine water changes from orange to colorless when mixed with unsaturated fats due to the addition reaction that occurs between bromine and the double bonds in the unsaturated fats.
Molecules that resemble fats but contain phosphate functional groups are called?
Phospholipids. They are a class of lipids that are structurally similar to fats but contain a phosphate group in addition to fatty acids. Phospholipids are major components of cell membranes and play a vital role in cell structure and function.
Which are formed from fatty acids with single carbon to carbon bonds?
Saturated fatty acids are formed from carbon to carbon single bonds. These molecules are typically solid at room temperature and are commonly found in animal fats and some plant oils. Consuming too many saturated fats can increase the risk of heart disease.
When fats reacts with sodium hydroxide they form?
The simplest answer is probably - "lye soap". In broader terms, the reaction of fats with bases (like NaOH) is called "saponification" and the product is soap. Saponification involves hydrolysis of triglycerides, which are esters of fatty acids, to form the salt (sodium salt if the base is NaOH) of a carboxylates. In addition to soap, such traditional saponification processes produces glycerol.
At room temperature saturated fats are?
Solid. At room temperature, saturated fats have a higher melting point than unsaturated fats, causing them to be solid. This is due to the chemical structure of saturated fats, which lack double bonds and allow the fatty acid chains to pack closely together.
What is the worst type of fat?
Man made fats, which include trans fats and partially hydrogenated oils are clearly the most dangerous. Polyunsaturated vegetable oils (Canola, corn, cottonseed etc), are already oxidized trans fats after the manufacturing process.
Does pizza contain trans fat?
Trans fats are unsaturated fats which have have same/simlar stucture to saturated fats therefore act as saturated fats. Trans fats are present in foods which contain vegetable fat which has been hydrograted partly to me soild. Pizzas can contain trans fats due to how the fat in the pizza base is made or trans fats naturally found in cheese. Trans fat levels should not go over 2g per person per day therefore having some trans fats is not too bad however you should limit the amount of trans fat you from.
Are transfats lipids?
Yes, trans fats are a type of lipid. They are unsaturated fats that have been altered through hydrogenation to increase their shelf life. Trans fats are considered unhealthy and have been linked to various health issues.
Excessive consumption of has been one factor linked to hypertension?
Salt, saturated fats, trans fats...
What is trans fat-?
an unsaturated fatty acid that has been changed to a saturated fatty acid
Does pork have trans fat?
There might be miniscule amounts of trans fats in pork, the result of feeding the pig a ration which includes trans fats. Trans fats are normally only produced by hydrogenation.
What is it called When hydrogen has been added to unsaturated fats?
When hydrogen has been added to unsaturated fats, it is called hydrogenation. This process converts unsaturated fats into saturated fats, making them solid at room temperature. However, it can also create trans fats, which are considered unhealthy.
What are the elements of trans fat?
Trans fats are formed when liquid oils are hydrogenated to become solid fats. They are found in partially hydrogenated oils and are made up of unsaturated fatty acids with at least one trans double bond. These trans fats have been linked to negative health effects such as increased risk of heart disease.
Which is better trans fats or cis fats?
Trans fats are hydrogenated unsaturated fats and they are supposed to be the worst fats there are for your health. Unsaturated fats are healthy fats and saturated fats and trans fats are unhealthy fats. Trans fats are often added to processed foods to extend the shelf life. There are no such fats as cis fats. There are certainly cis fatty acids and trans fatty acids and the difference between the two is in the hydrogen atoms positions and one could be regarded as an isomer of the other. All fats are basically triglycerides which means glycerol triesterified with 3 fatty acids.
Is it polyunsaturated fats or monounsaturated fats or saturated fats or trans fats in cheese?
MOINOSATURATED
Saturated fats and trans fats raise the body's total cholesterol?
Yes, but trans are much worse.
Are hydrogenated oils the same as trans fat?
No, saturated fats and trans fats are different. Saturated fat increases low-density lipoprotein, which is bad for you. Trans fats do the same thing, but also lower high-density lipoprotein, which is good for you. Trans fats are a lot worse.
