Triglycerides are composed of three fatty acids bonded to a glycerol backbone. Explore the structures and properties of triglycerides. The carbon-carbon double bonds of triglycerides will react withhydrogen gas in the presence of a metal catalyst such as Pt. This process will convert the unsaturated triglycerides to saturated triglycerides. What quantity in moles of H2 gas would be required to convert thistriglyceride to a fully saturated triglyceride?
