Question

Why do oils contain unsaturated triglycerides rather than saturated?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The acid molecules can either be saturated or unsaturated. The fats and oils formed are also known as triglycerides.Oils (liquids at room temperature) contain more carbon to carbon double bonds than fats (solid at room temperature). The lower melting point of oils is related to the higher degree of unsaturation.
