better look at them. Rock Candy: It’s easy to grow your own sugar crystals! Sugar crystals are also known as rock candy since the crystallized sucrose (table sugar) resembles rock crystals and because you can eat your finished product. You can grow beautiful clear sugar crystals with sugar and water or you can add food coloring to get colored crystals. It’s simple‚ safe‚ and fun. Boiling water is required to dissolve the sugar‚ so adult supervision is recommended for this project. Difficulty:

Purpose: To find the percent of sugar by mass in chewing gum Hypothesis: The percentage of chewing gum that is sugar for bubble gum is 30%‚ 20% for juicy fruit and 25% for stride gum. Mass Of Juicy Fruit Mass Of Bubble Gum Mass of Juicy Fruit unchewed | 7.12g- 1.72 = 5.4 g | 5.80g- 1.72g = 4.08 | 4.52g- 1.72g = 2.80g | chewed | 3.00g- 1.72g= 1.28g | 2.24g-1.72g =0.52g | 2.86g-1.72g= 1.14g | Percent of Sugar | 3.00g x 100/ 5.4 = 55.5%

In 1976 scientists at Tate & Lyle Ltd.‚ a large British sugar refiner‚ and researchers at the University of London discovered sucralose‚ a no calorie sweetener also known by its brand name as Splenda. Sucralose is a chlorinated chemical compound that is made in a multiple-step chemical manufacturing process. In the process‚ three atoms of chlorine are substituted for three hydroxyl groups in the sugar molecule sucrose (white table sugar)‚ creating a tightly bonded‚ highly stable molecule. The

Anthony Renzi Mrs. Charptenier Physical Science 15 September 2013 Double Bubble Conundrum Lab Problem: How can you prove there is 4 grams of sugar in the gum? Hypothesis: If you chew the gum until the flavors completely gone then the sugar will dissolve and the gum will weigh less. Procedure: 1.) Take the gum out of wrapper 2.) Record observations about the gum and the ingredients 3.) Weigh the gum and wrapper separately 4.) Write down calculations

Fermented foods are made by the partial oxidation of sugars‚ or sometimes other organic molecules‚ in a food product. The difference between this and the normal cellular respiration is that the electron donor from the electron transport chain is an organic compound rather than oxygen. One challenge for producing fermented foods is the pH levels of the food. Bacteria have different optimal pH levels. Therefore‚ as pH changes due to fermentation different bacteria will begin to ferment the food. For

were normally fried breads or cheesecakes‚ and normally had a disk shape. Determining whether a given food should be classified as bread‚ cake‚ or pastry can be difficult. Modern cake‚ especially layer cakes‚ normally contain a combination of flour‚ sugar‚ eggs‚ and butter or oil‚ with some varieties also requiring liquid (typically milk or water) and leavening agents (such as yeast or baking powder). Flavorful ingredients like fruit purées‚ nuts‚ dried or candied fruit‚ or extracts are often added

Carbohydrates are a type of macronutrient found in many foods and beverages. Most carbohydrates are naturally occurring in plant-based foods‚ such as grains. Food manufacturers also add carbohydrates to processed foods in the form of starch or added sugar. As with all our approaches to food ingredients/constituents

our bodies. Insulin plays a critical role in the way our body uses food. The primary function is decreasing the concentration of glucose (sugar) in your blood stream. Every time you eat your body begins to break down the food into glucose‚ which goes into your blood stream. Your pancreas reacts to the surge in glucose by releasing insulin which cleans the sugar from your blood. A portion of the glucose runs through the liver where it’s converted to glycogen to be used by your muscles. Then insulin

A sugar substitute is a natural or artificial product made to produce the sweet flavor on food or other products that otherwise would be bitter. Synthetic artificial sugar substitutes are called artificial sweeteners. Inside the family of the sweeteners there are high-calorie ones like sugar or honey‚ but the low calorie ones are the artificial sweeteners mostly associated with diet products. These artificial sweeteners are what people consume today as a substitute to regular sugar (sucrose). According
