★ Hydrogenation Description ★
∴ Hydrogenation is the process where hydrogen atoms bind to the double bond of a compound, facilitating its conversion to a single bond, in the presence of a catalyst.
∴ Hydrogenation is commonly used during the manufacturing of food products where unsaturated fats and oil are converted to saturated fats and oils.
∴ Hydrogenation is a reduction reaction which results in an addition of hydrogen (usually as H2).
∴ If an organic compound is hydrogenated, it becomes more "saturated" with hydrogen atoms.
∴ The process typically requires the use of a catalyst, since hydrogenation only occurs spontaneously at high temperatures.
