Generation

# Saturated vs Unsaturated Fats **Saturated fats** contain only single bonds between carbon atoms (C-C) in their fatty acid chains, meaning they are "saturated" with hydrogen atoms and have the maximum number of hydrogens possible. **Unsaturated fats** contain one or more double bonds (C=C) in their carbon chains, resulting in fewer hydrogen atoms and creating kinks in the molecular structure. **Key formula difference:** - Saturated: CₙH₂ₙO₂ (for fatty acids) - Unsaturated: CₙH₂ₙ₋₂ₓO₂ (where x = number of double bonds) Saturated fats are typically solid at room temperature (butter, lard), while unsaturated fats are usually liquid (olive oil, fish oil) due to their bent molecular shape preventing tight packing.
