Hydrogenation

Vedclass · Answer

(A) Vegetable oils contain unsaturated fatty acids with double bonds. Hydrogenation is the chemical process in which hydrogen gas is added to these unsaturated fats in the presence of a catalyst (like nickel,$Ni$) to convert them into saturated fats (vegetable ghee/vanaspati ghee). This process increases the melting point of the oil,turning it into a solid or semi-solid state at room temperature.
