  2. 4. Of or relating to an organic compound, especially a fatty acid, containing one or more double or triple bonds between the carbon atoms. Capable of dissolving more of a solute at a given temperature.
  3. 5. an edible oil extracted from the kernel or meat of matured coconuts harvested from the coconut palm. It has various applications in food, medicine, and industry.
  4. 6. are the simplest organic compounds . Containing only carbon and hydrogen, they can be straight-chain, branched chain, or cyclic molecules
  5. 7. Any of a large group of monobasic acids, especially those found in animal and vegetable fats and oils, having the general formula CnH2n+1COOH.
  6. 9. noting or pertaining to a class of chemical compounds that formerly comprised only those existing in or derived from plants or animals, but that now includes all other compounds of carbon.
  7. 10. are organic molecules made of the functional group carbon-carbon triple bonds. They are written in the empirical formula of CnH2n-2. They are unsaturated hydrocarbons.
  8. 11. (of an organic molecule) containing the greatest possible number of hydrogen atoms, and so having no carbon-carbon double or triple bonds.
  9. 13. an ester derived from glycerol and three fatty acids. They are blood lipids that help enable the bidirectional transference of adipose fat and blood glucose from the liver.
  10. 15. The Federal drug administration
  11. 17. Hydrocarbons which contain only single bonds are called alkanes. They are called saturated hydrocarbons because there is a hydrogen in every possible location. This gives them a general formula CnH2n+2.
  12. 18. Any of numerous mineral, vegetable, and synthetic substances and animal and vegetable fats that are generally slippery, combustible, viscous, liquid or liquefiable at room temperatures, soluble in various organic solvents such as ether but not in water, and used in a great variety of products, especially lubricants and fuels.

  2. 2. Of or relating to long-chain carbon compounds, especially fatty acids, having two or more double bonds between the carbon atoms. Foods containing this type of acid help reduce blood cholesterol levels and include sunflower, soybean, sesame seed, and corn oils and cold-water fish such as salmon.
  3. 3. does not contain carbon chemically bound to hydrogen. Carbonates, bicarbonates, carbides, and carbon oxides are considered inorganic compounds, even though they contain carbon.
  4. 6. combined or treated with hydrogen, especially to add hydrogen to the molecule of (an unsaturated organic compound).
  5. 8. a lipid (fat) which is produced by the liver. It is vital for normal body function. Every cell in our body has this in its outer layer.
  6. 12. an edible vegetable oil derived from the mesocarp of the fruit of the oil palms, primarily the African oil palm Elaeis guineensis, and to a lesser extent from the American oil palm Elaeis oleifera and the maripa palm Attalea maripa.
  7. 14. A Healthy cooking oil. It has the least saturated fat of any common cooking oil. In fact, it has less than half the saturated fat of olive or soybean oil. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
  8. 16. Aliphatic hydrocarbons with one double bond between carbons are called alkenes. They follow the naming convention of the alkanes except that the suffix -ene is used instead of -ane. For alkenes above propene the position of the double bond must be specified in the name.
