Introduction
We can convert unsaturated hydrocarbons to saturated hydrocarbons.
Pre-Requisites:
Hydrocarbons, saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons
Activity:
In TV advertisemnts it is mentioned that some cooking oils are healthier than others because they contain unsaturated fatty acids. Find out other reactions that use catalyst. Also find out whether the cooking oil being used in your house contains unsaturated fatty acids.
Real Life Question:
“Why cooking oils with only unsaturated fatty acids should be used?”
