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
