Hydrogenation or addition of hydrogen is a chemical test to differentiate between butter and cooking oil.

Hydrogenation or addition of hydrogen is a chemical test to differentiate between butter and cooking oil.Butter contains saturated fats. Therefore, it cannot be hydrogenated. On the other hand, oil has unsaturated fats. That is why it can be hydrogenated to saturated fats (solids).

Answer:

Bromine water test can be used to chemically differentiate between a butter (Saturated) and cooking oil (Unsaturated). Take two test tubes, one with a small amount of butter in it and the other with some cooking oil. Add bromine water to both the test tubes.
