Some cases Vitamin C has been proven harmful. The only reason we believe that Vitamin C is good for us in large doses is because of a man named Linus Pauling. Linus Pauling was an American chemist‚ biochemist‚ peace activist‚ author‚ and educator. He was the only person to receive two noble prizes by

Objective To determine soluble solid concentration in some fruits including tropical and temperate fruits by using handheld refractometer. Introduction “Sugar are the major soluble in fruits juices and estimate of sweetness. Other soluble materials include organic and amino acids‚ soluble pectins‚ and others. Soluble solid concentration can be determined in a small sample of fruits juice using a hand held refractometer. The measurement must be made at 20°C to get an accurate value. This instrument

EXPERIMENT 1 DETERMINATION OF ASCORBIC ACID CONTENT IN VITAMIN C TABLETS INTRODUCTION To calculate the mass of the ascorbic acid and hence the mass percentage of ascorbic acid in the vitamin C tablet. PROCEDURES (Refer to Lab Manual) 1. Accurately weight vitamin C (effervescent type) in a 50 ml beaker. Add about 30 ml of deionised water to dissolve the vitamin C tablet. Once the tablet has dissolved completely‚ transfer the solution into a 250 ml volumetric flask via a plastic filter

Analysis of commercial vitamin C tablets Objective To determine the vitamin C content in commercial vitamin C tablets by titration between vitamin C (ascorbic acid) & iodine solution. Hence‚ compare this data with the manufacturer ’s specification. Principle In this analysis‚ certain amount of iodine solution‚ which is known in excess‚ is added to acidified ascorbic acid solution. Brown iodine can be easily reduced by acidified ascorbic acid to form colourless iodide ion:

Analysis of Commercial Vitamin C Tablets Aim: To employ iodometric titration to determine the content of vitamin C in commercial tablets using volumetric analysis and compares it with the manufacturersÂ’ specifications. Introduction Vitamin C is an essential substance for maintaining good health and it is proved to be the agent which prevents scurvy. Most animals can synthesize their own vitamin C‚ but some‚ such as human cannot. Owing to the increasing concern for oneÂ’s health

Temperature on Content of Vitamin C Introduction A daily intake of Vitamin C is essential for humans. Without it‚ the disease scurvy develops as sailors‚ explorers and people during the long winters in the Northern hemisphere found before the time of Captain Cook. The British Navy started giving sailors lime juice to prevent scurvy on long voyages in 1795. Vitamin C is found in high levels in foods such as oranges‚ limes‚ lemons‚ blackcurrants‚ parsley and capsicums. Vitamin C is water soluble and is
