The chemical activity of some types of fats is determined by whether the molecules have many double bonds. What types of models could you use to find out how many double bonds are in a molecule of fat?

Answer:

On the other hand, the introduction of one or more double bonds in the hydrocarbon chain in unsaturated fatty acids results in one or more "bends" in the molecule. The geometry of the double bond is almost always a cis configuration in natural fatty acids. These molecules do not "stack" very well.

The Types of models that could be used to find out the number of double bonds in a molecule of fat are ;

  • Lipids and
  • Unsaturated fat molecule

Unsaturated fat molecules contains one or more double bonds in its chain. A fat molecule becomes unsaturated when the carbons from the hydrocarbon molecule share two or three bonds, this prevents the fat molecule from  becoming saturated with the hydrogen atoms.

Lipids contain three double bonds ( cis bonds ) and this makes the shape of the Lipid fat molecule to appear curvy when viewed.

Hence the models that could be used to find out the number of double bonds in a molecule of fat are Lipids and unsaturated fat molecule.
