INTRODUCTION In our experiment we tested the amount of vitamin C in a certain amount of lemon juice. We did this with the help of PCPIP which is an indicator that shows the presence if C vitamin. For this we used the mentioned indicator‚ pipette‚ three eprouvetes‚ 0.1% of C vitamin solution and lemon juice. First we had to get the volume of 0.1% vitamin C solution that is needed for our amount of PCPIP (2ml) to decolorize. Then we had to determine the volume of lemon juice that is needed to

How is Vitamin C manufactured? Ascorbic Acid Also known as: l-ascorbic acid‚ vitamin C‚ ascorbate A six carbon compound related to glucose. It is found naturally in citrus fruits and many vegetables. Ascorbic acid is an essential nutrient in human diets‚ and necessary to maintain connective tissue and bone. Its biologically active form‚ vitamin C‚ functions as a reducing agent and coenzyme in several metabolic pathways. Vitamin C is considered an antioxidant. http://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/summary/summary

WILL NOW DESIGN AN EXPERIMENT TO STUDY THE EFFECT OF A FACTOR AFFECTING VITAMIN C IN FRUIT JUICES WHAT IS THE EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE ON VITAMIN C IN FRUIT JUICES? The purpose of this experiment is to determine if the difference in temperature will damage vitamin C in any type of fruit juices. Five different temperatures of fruit juices will be used(5‚ 22‚ 50‚ 70‚ 90) degree Celsius to see how temperature affects the loss of vitamin C in fruit juices. The amount of vitamin C in the fruit juices

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.

Is High Vitamin C all it claims to be? These days‚ there is much concern on our consumption of food drink‚ we’re told we do not intake the required daily level of fruit and veg‚ many manufactures claim to provide excellent levels of nutrients‚ This experiment will be carried out to see whether the vitamin c levels claimed by manufacturers are actually present in the drinks‚ this will be done by experimenting various drinks using blue DCPIP solution. The quantity of vitamin C in food and drink

absorbed by using the electromagnetic spectrum. By seeing which colors are absorbed and which are reflected scientists can determine what a substance is without having to touch them. This is possible because each substance has a specific absorbance spectrum‚ meaning that the absorption spectrum of two different substances cannot be the same. Purpose/Hypothesis: 1. The purpose of the experiment was to determine the extinction coefficient for a solution of DCPIP. This was done by using the concentration

DETERMINATION OF VITAMIN C CONTENT IN COMMERCIAL (CENOVIS) TABLET ABSTRACT In this experiment‚ the vitamin C content of a commercial tablet is determined and compared with the manufacturers’ specification. Vitamin C is water-soluble and is an enantiomer of ascorbic acid. (Commercial vitamin C is often a mixture of ascorbic acid and other ascorbates.) Ascorbic acid‚ C6H8O6‚ is a reducing agent that reacts rapidly with iodine (I2). As the iodine is added during the titration‚ the ascorbic acid is

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:
