Answer:
Hydrogenation
Explanation:
Unsaturated compounds have double bond or triple bond in their structure whereas saturated compounds have single bonds in their structures.
To convert the unsaturated to saturated compounds we need to break the double or triple bond.
This we do by addition of hydrogen to the unsaturated compound in the presence of Nickel catalyst.
This is a process known as Hydrogenation.
