Research Question: How the amount of vitamin C in fruit juices affects its freshness and till what extent is the information provided on the pack by manufacturers is reliable? Background Information: Hypothesis: -fresh juices have more vitamin C than long-life -juice that is ‘not from concentrate’ is best in terms of vitamin content -if heat destroys vitamin C then heat-treated long-life juices will have lower concentrations -if heat destroys vitamin C then boiled fruit juice will have

Estimating the Vitamin C Concentration in Fruit Juices: A Redox Titration Prelab Assignment – Please turn your answers in on GaView prior to lab 1. How will you prepare a .02% (m/v) NBS solution? Calculations should be in your notebook before arriving to lab. 2. Provide the structure of vitamin C in its reduced form (ascorbic acid)‚ its ionized form (ascorbate ion- this is at equilibrium with reduced form when dissolved)‚ and its oxidized form (dehydroascorbate). 3.

orange juices‚ and we also used 0.1% of vitamin C solution. The aim of our experiment was to see how much DCPIP was needed to be added to make the orange juices turn back to the orange colour and the DCPIP to decolourise once the 0.1% of vitamin C was added. DCPIP is a blue dye in its non-reduced form; it becomes colourless when it gains electrons. Vitamin C is an anti – oxidant‚ this is found mainly in fresh fruit and vegetables. The main use of Vitamin C is that it neutralises free radicals‚ which

Abstract Vitamin C‚ also known as ascorbic acid‚ is a water soluble vitamin that is regarded as one of the safest and most effective nutrients. Vitamin C can be found in most fruits and vegetables. The goal of the experiment is to find out the concentration of vitamin C in three citrus fruits‚ orange‚ lemon and lime‚ and to compare them and find out which fruit contains the highest concentration of Vitamin C. By using the juice from each fruit to make a solution to combine with 10cm³ of DCPIP until

Lab Report: MEASUREMENT OF VITAMIN C Introduction Nutritional diseases were once the number one cause of death only a century ago‚ but rarely affect our lives today. The complete lack of vitamin C (ascorbic acid) characterized by dark purple spots on the skin and rotting gums‚ a disease called scurvy‚ took the lives of many sailors up until the mid 1800s when the prevention was discovered. Consequently‚ British sailors became referred to as ‘limeys’ because of their daily habit of eating
