How many Atoms can a single carbon Atoms bond with?
carbon can bond with 4 different atoms.
Why is a saturated hydrocarbon an organic compound which contains hydrogen and carbon joined?
The bond is covalent; the meaning of saturated is a single bond between carbon atoms (C-C).
Does Saturated fatty acids have H in all available carbon bond positions on the carbon chain?
yes because all the c atoms are saturated with maximum no. of h atoms.
What are saturated carbons?
Unsaturated carbon compound contain C=C. They can undergo addition reaction.
How many atoms can bond with a single carbon atom?
carbon can bond with 4 different atoms.
Do the atoms have the same rotational ability or mobility in the unsaturated fatty acid as they had in the saturated fatty acid?
Not all of the atoms. The carbon atoms connected by a double bond in an unsaturated fatty acid have less rotational mobility than the carbon atoms connected by a single bond in a saturated fatty acid.
Is methane polyunsaturated?
Methane is saturated. It consists of 1 carbon and 4 hydrogen atoms. An unsaturated bond can not be attached to a hydrogen atom. It requires 2 carbon atoms to have an unsaturated bond.
What is true of saturated fat?
True of saturated fat is that, it has not a single set of double bond between two near by carbon atoms.
A saturated fatty acid will have how man double bonds between various carbon atoms?
It will have one carbon double bond
How many different atoms can carbon bond with at one time?
Under normal conditions, carbon will bond with a maximum of 4 other atoms.
What is having no carbon-carbon double bonds?
In fatty acids, having no carbon-carbon double bond makes the molecule saturated with hydrogen atoms.
What is the difference between saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons?
A saturated hydrocarbon is one where all the carbon atoms are bonded to four other atoms. An unsaturated hydrocarbon is one where some of the carbon atoms aren't (an example being an alkene due to the carbon carbon double bond).
