How do trans fats complicate the previous description of saturated and unsaturated fats?
a) trans fats are unsaturated because they have one or more double bonds, but their molecules are straight due to that they have been generated from newly synthesized saturated fats.
b) trans fats are unsaturated because they have one or more double bonds, but they have physical characteristics similar to saturated fats because they have almost the same amount of hydrogen atoms as saturated fats have.
c) trans fats are unsaturated because they have one or more double bonds, but they have physical characteristics similar to saturated fats due to the trans double bond that straightens the hydrocarbon chain.
d) trans fats are unsaturated because they have one double bond, but they have physical characteristics similar to saturated fats because they have only one double bond, which cannot change the physical characteristics signific

C)

Explanation:

The fats can be saturated or unsaturated. Saturated fats have only simple bonds between atoms of carbon. The unsaturated fats have one or more double bonds between atoms of carbon.

When there are double bonds in the carbon chain, the molecule can have geometric isometric, if the carbons of the double bond have different binders. The isomers are named cis and trans. The cis molecule has the equivalent atoms or structures (the same or mass equivalent) on the same side of the plan of the molecule. The trans molecule has this equivalent atoms or structures in the opposite side of the plan of the molecule (see figure below)

It happens in a way to stabilize the molecule. So, the trans fat, because of its disposition, has straightened the hydrocarbon chain, almost like the saturated molecule, then, they have similar characteristics.

answer; /// i do believe that the correct answer is (c)nuclear bond

explanation:

metals have excess of electrons whereas non-metals have deficiency of electrons. thus, in order to gain stability metals easily donate their electrons to the non-metals.

for example, electronic configuration of sodium is and electronic configuration of phosphorous is .

when a phosphorous atom and sodium atom combine together then sodium will donate is extra one electron to the phosphorous atom. as a result there will be formation of ionic bond between sodium and phosphorous.

the reaction will be as follows.

there, are three sodium sodium atoms and each of them will donate its one extra electron to phosphorous atom. thus, the sub-shell of phosphorous gets completely filled.  

thus, we can conclude that electrons are transferred from atoms of sodium to atoms of phosphorous. this transfer makes the sodium atoms donate one electron and the phosphorous atoms to gain one electron. as a result, the sodium and phosphorus atoms strongly attract each other.
