vitamin C INTRODUCTION Vitamin C is a product that is usually found in many foods and produced by an abundance of chemical companies as dietary supplements. This vitamin is essential to the scurvy patients and used abundantly in cosmetic company due to its antioxidant properties.

potential of vitamin C to prevent and cure diseases such as cancer‚ flu and cold by using high amounts of vitamin C. First of all‚ Vitamin C‚ also known as ascorbic acid‚ is a molecule with complex characteristics despite its simple structure. It is an “elusive vitamin‚ very variable in concentration even in food groups (fruits and vegetables) that are recognised as good sources of the vitamin‚ very soluble in water and very sensitive to alkali‚ oxidation and heat” (Nobile & Woodhill‚ Vitamin C : the Mysterious

question‚ or topic‚ was “Does the level of vitamin C change over time in Orange Juice.” After I viewed the website‚ I got very excited because it had simple step-by-step instructions about how to test the level of vitamin C. On the following page are the directions. I think I am really excited to do this project because it sounds very interesting and fun to do. I hope to prove what the driving question/topic entails.

THE VITAMIN C CONTENT OF FRUIT JUICE Aim: To investigate the vitamin C content of fruit juice.Hypothesis: I believe the more drops of fruit juice taken to decolourise DCPIP‚ the smaller the amount of vitamin C in that fruit juice. This is because DCPIP needed to be decolourised by ascorbic acid in fruit juice‚ so less concentration of ascorbic acids means that more ascorbic acids is needed to decolourised DCPIP. I believe that freshly squeezed orange is going to have the most Vitamin C content
