September 10th‚ 2013 EXPERIMENT 1 LEARNING BASIC OPERATIONS: THE EFFECT OF PH ON A FOOD PRESERVATIVE Purpose: The purpose of this experiment was to investigate a competitor’s claim that the food preservative‚ sodium benzoate (C6H5COONa)‚ made by Fresh Foods International (FFI)‚ changed into a new substance in stomach acid. Stomach acid has a pH between 1 and 3 due to the hydrochloric acid content. Based on the net equation given in the book as well as the solubility of the product our hypothesis

How do Food Preservatives affect the growth of Microorganism? | By: Aya Zbedah | | December 15‚ 2008 | | Mrs. Hafell 5th Period Biology | 2008-2009 | | Abstract How Food Preservatives affect the growth of Microorganisms? Aya Zbedah Ballard High School The purpose of this project is to see which preservative will either slow down the growth of bacteria or speed up the growth using the three most common preservatives: sugar‚ salt and‚ vinegar. Humans usually have a problem keeping their

.6 Fruit sugar preserves technology; jams‚ jellies‚ marmalade‚ fruit paste Contents - [pic]Previous - Next[pic] As a overall rule of thumb‚ a sugar concentration of about 60% in finished or processed fruit products generally insures their preservation. Preservation is not only determined by the osmotic pressure of sugar solutions but also by the water activity values in the liquid phase‚ which can be lowered by sugar addition; and by evaporation down to 0.848 aw; this value however does not protect

local food manufacturer to determine if sodium benzoate‚ a common food preservative‚ undergoes significant chemical changes at the pH level encountered in the acidic environment of the stomach. Experimental Method Sodium benzoate was prepared by addition of an equimolar amount of aqueous sodium hydroxide (3 M‚ ~ 20 ml) to a benzoic acid (1.256 g‚ 10.3 mmol) /water mixture (10 ml). Benzoic acid is insoluble in water. The hydroxide base rapidly deprotonates the acid‚ producing the benzoate anion

SODIUM gSodium is a chemical element with the symbol Na (from Latin: natrium) and atomic number 11. It is a soft‚ silver-white‚ highly reactive metal and is a member of the alkali metals; its only stable isotope is 23Na. The free metal does not occur in nature‚ but instead must be prepared from its compounds; it was first isolated by Humphry Davy in 1807 by the electrolysis of sodium hydroxide. Sodium is the sixth most abundant element in the Earth’s crust‚ and exists in numerous minerals such
