That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
Unsaturated fats are usually liquid at room temperature because they have double bonds in their carbon chains. These double bonds introduce kinks in the structure of the fat molecules, preventing them from packing tightly together. As a result, unsaturated fats have a lower melting point and remain in a liquid state at room temperature. In contrast, saturated fats lack double bonds and have a straighter structure, allowing them to pack tightly and solidify at room temperature.
