What is the difference between a saturaded and unsaturaded fatty acid?

The difference between a saturated and unsaturated fatty acid are the number of hydrogen atoms and double carbon bonds in the fatty acid chain. A saturated fatty acid has no carbon double bonds, two hydrogen atoms for each carbon atom along the chain and three for the carbon atom at each end. In an unsaturated fatty acid chain some of the hydrogen atoms are replaced by a double bond between neighboring carbon atoms. Mon-unsaturated and poly-unsaturated fatty acids differ in the number of double carbon bonds in the chain, and thus the total number of hydrogen atoms.

I think that there is one atom of hydrogen and one of chlorine.


What element is removed from a fatty acid to make it unsaturated?

Saturated fatty acids have no double bonds between the individual carbon atoms of the fatty acid chain; the chain of carbon atoms is fully "saturated" with hydrogen atoms.A fat molecule is monounsaturated if it contains one double bond, and polyunsaturated if it contains more than one double bond; where double bonds are formed, hydrogen atoms are eliminated

Is saturated fat an element or compound?

Saturated fat is a type of compound. It is composed of triglycerides containing saturated fatty acids, where each carbon atom in the fatty acid chain is bonded to the maximum number of hydrogen atoms.


What is the Lewis structure of formic acid?

The Lewis structure of formic acid consists of a carbon atom double-bonded to an oxygen atom, which is also single-bonded to a hydrogen atom. Another hydrogen atom is single-bonded to the carbon atom.


What type of acid is nitric acid?

The answer to that is monoprotic for there is only one hydrogen atom.


Difference between a saturated fatty acid and an unsaturated fatty acid?

Fatty acid is a carboxylic acid with a long aliphatic tail (chain), which is either saturated or unsaturated. A saturated fatty acid contains the maximum amount of hydrogen atoms. Saturated fatty acids are long-chain carboxylic acids that generally have between 12 and 24 carbon atoms and have no double bonds. They are saturated with hydrogen because saturated fatty acids have only single bonds, each carbon atom within the chain has 2 hydrogen atoms. Unsaturated fatty acids do not contain the maximum amount of hydrogen atoms, therefore two or more carbon atoms are attached with a double bond. Unsaturated fatty acids have one or more double bonds between carbon atoms.
