Write an equation for the hydrogenation of glyceryl trilinolenate, a fat formed from glycerol and three linolenic acid molecules.

Balanced chemical equation for the hydrogenation of glyceryl trilinolenate:

C₅₇H₉₂O₆ + 9H₂ → C₅₇H₁₁₀O₆.

Linolenic acid (octadecatrienoic acids) is a type of fatty acid. It has 18 carbon atoms chain and three double bonds. So trilinolenate has nine double bonds.

Trilinolenate is the form of triglyceride esters of linolenic acid.

Hydrogenation is addition of hydrogen atoms at both sides of a double bond.
