if vegetable oil contain two duble bond siturated=2 mole of hydrogen
because 1 double bond saturated =1 mole of h
if u like comment thanks
because 1 double bond saturated =1 mole of h

Given:
No of double bonds in 1 oil molecule = 2
No of moles of oil = 1
To Find:
The no of moles of hydrogen gas that are required for complete hydrogenation of 1 mole of oil.
Calculation:
- The hydrogenation of a double bond requires 1 hydrogen molecule given as follows:
-C=C- + H2 ---> -CH-CH-
- As the oil molecule has 2 double bonds, the hydrogen molecules required for its complete hydrogenation = 2
- For 1 mole of oil molecules, the hydrogen gas required = 1 × 2 = 2
- So, 2 moles of hydrogen gas are required for complete hydrogenation of 1 mole of oil.
