← ScienceWhich outcome commonly results when unsaturated triglycerides undergo catalytic hydrogenation?
A)Increased melting point solidifies✓
B)Lower viscosity becomes gaseous
C)Reduced reactivity generates isomers
D)Decreased density dissolves readily
💡 Explanation
Hydrogenation adds hydrogen across the double bond via Syn addition, increasing the saturation and van der Waals forces. This phase change raises the material's melting point because intermolecular attraction increases to keep it solid rather than as a liquid with lower temperatures.
