Question

Unsaturated fats are fats which have one or more double bonds in their fatty acid chains. The number of these double bonds determine the degree of unsaturation of the fatty acid, the higher the number of double bond, the higher the degree of unsaturation of the fat. Unsaturated fats are liquids at room temperature.

Answer 1

Answer:

An unsaturated fat is a fat or fatty acid in which there is one or more double bond in the fatty acid chain. 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
