Answer 1

catalytic hydrogenation saturates the oil.so Hydrogenated vegetable oils have fewer trans fatty acids So as to reduce kinks.The larger the unsaturated ( double bond ), the higher the " kink " in the fatty acid chain.Hydrogenated vegetable oils have a higher melting point, making them. solids at room temperature For example, margarine.In the absence of double bonds ( hydrogenation ), fatty acids are tightly wrapped in a lattice.Hydrogenated vegetable oils are likely to clog arteries.
