Rancidity of fats can be prevented by antioxidants.
Report Question
0%
True
0%
False
Explanation
Rancidity-
It is the complete or incomplete oxidation or hydrolysis of fats and oils when exposed to air, light, moisture or by bacterial action, resulting in unpleasant taste and odour.
Rancidity can be prevented by:-
Storing foods away from light, In the absence of light the oxidation process of fats and oils slows down and thus rancidity is retarded.

Explanation
In this reaction, copper is losing oxygen and hydrogen is gaining oxygen. If a substance gains oxygen during a reaction, it is said to be oxidised. If a substance loses oxygen during a reaction, it is said to be reduced. So, in this reaction, hydrogen is getting oxidised while hydrogen is getting is reduced.
State whether the following statement is true or false:
A chemical equation can be balanced easily by altering the formula of a reactant or product.
Report Question
0%
True
0%
False
Explanation
By the law of constant proportion, the chemical formula for a compound can't be changed, it's always fixed.
But the reaction is balanced by equating the number of atoms of different elements on both sides by multiplying reactant or product with whole numbers or fractions.
