← ScienceWhich outcome is caused by catalytic hydrogenation of unsaturated fats?
A)Increased melting point results✓
B)Saponification number decreases rapidly
C)Increased degree of unsaturation appears
D)Trans isomers convert to cis
💡 Explanation
The addition of hydrogen via catalytic hydrogenation saturates C=C bonds, increasing van der Waals forces because the structure aligns linearly, therefore melting point increases rather than decreasing or altering any saponification behavior.
