Answer:

the number of carbon-carbon double bonds

Explanation:

Triglyceride is the ester which is derived from the glycerol and three units of fatty acids.

There are two types of triglycerides which are saturated and unsaturated triglycerides.

<u>Saturated fats are the triglycerides in which there is not double bond between the carbon atoms. These have higher value of melting point and are solid at the room temperature. </u>

<u>Unsaturated fats are the triglycerides which have some double bonded carbon atoms. These have lower value of melting point and are liquid at room temperature.</u>

A homogeneous mixture is uniform throughout, like water that has dissolved gases. You cannot easily distinguish the individual parts of the mixture. Many other drinks are considered homogeneous too. Laundry detergent and colognes are other examples of homogeneous mixtures. Homogeneous mixtures can also be a solid (ie. steel), liquid or gas form. It does not always have to be a liquid.
