Which modifications of fatty acids will best keep triglycerides solid at warmer temperatures? a. creating cis double bonds to the fatty acids b. adding hydrogens to the fatty acids c. creating trans double bonds to the fatty acids d. adding hydrogens and trans double bonds to the fatty acids e. adding cis double bonds and trans double bonds to the fatty acids
Answer e is correct.
Trans double bonds and hydrogens are not added at the same time. Adding a trans double bond takes away the possibility of adding hydrogens. In fact, adding trans double bonds takes away the possibility of adding hydrogens.Therefore adding cis and trans double bond to the fatty acids will best keep triglycerides solid at warmer temperature.

Olive Oil Olive oil contains triglycerides such as those shown in Figure P20.3. a. Which of the fatty acids in these triglycerides is/are saturated? b. Are the unsaturated fatty acids likely to be cis or trans isomers?
Trans fatty acids have a higher melting point than their cis isomers because: a. they are bent due to the trans configuration b. they contain more carbon atoms c. they contain fewer carbon atoms d. the trans configuration affects the pKa of the carboxylic acid group, e. or of some other reason?
