Answer 1

Answer:

no.im not using snack video....

Explanation:

Hydrogenation is an addition reaction between the hydrogen and other compounds in the presence of a catalyst.

Example: Hydrogenation of ethene involves the addition of two hydrogen atom across the double bond of ethene as a result saturated ethane is formed. The reaction is more favoured because of energy of the reactants is more compared to the energy of the product. The reaction is an example of an exothermic reaction.

CH2 = CH2 → CH3CH3

Industrial application:

This reaction is generally used in vegetable oils hydrogenation. Vegetable oil has long unsaturated carbon chains that are converted into saturated fatty acids, i.e., vegetable ghee.
