with regards to fatty acids, if you wanted to convert a saturated fatty acid into an unsaturated fatty acid, what structural change would need to be introduced? a) addition of a double ionic bond between two carbon atoms b) addition of a double covalent bond between two carbon atoms c) removal of a double ionic bond between two carbon atoms d) removal of a double covalent bond between two carbon atoms
Homework Answers
Unsaturated fatty acids have double covalent bonds between two carbon atoms.
Hence, the correct option is (b) addition of a double covalent bond between two carbon atoms.
Unsaturated fatty acid chains are more reduced than saturated fatty acid chains. The addition of a double covalent bond between two carbon atoms will of a saturated fatty acid will results formation of an unsaturated fatty acid. Thus, the correct option is (b).

Unsaturated fatty acids are often classified according to the number of carbon atoms between the terminal methyl carbon
Unsaturated fatty acids are often classified according to the number of carbon atoms between the terminal methyl carbon (the omega carbon) and the closest double bond to the methyl end of the chain. An omega-3 fatty acid, for example, would have a double bond in position 3 counting from the methyl end of the molecule. Identify which omega class each fatty acid belongs to.

Omega-6 fatty acids are: O A form of saturated fatty acids O Contain a double bond at the third omega carbon O Synthesized in the liver Help to regulate the constriction of blood vessels Omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids are both polyunsaturated fatty acids that are essential to the human body. However, along with the chemical structures previously discussed, there are additional differences between the two essential fatty acids (EFAs). In the table, choose whether each statement concerns omega-3 or...
