Fat is a basically a glycerol molecule with fatty- acid chains added. These fatty-acid chains can be saturated with hydrogens or not. This means that all carbons in the fatty-acid chain have all the hydrogen atoms possible. A fatty acid is not saturated and has carbons with double bonds. Polyunsaturated fatty acids can have many double bonds. Monounsaturated fatty acids have a single double bond.
