The most universal dispersion medium in food systems
Useful in cooling as well as in heating foods
Influences appearance, texture, and flavor of foods
-states of matter; solid liquid gas
- plays important roles in food prep
Cannot - Answer Moisture Content of Foods
Foods of plant and animal origin are made mainly of water. 60-95% of meats,
vegetables and fruits
___ be judged by appearance
o Strawberries versus cabbage
o Milk versus green beans
o Butter versus flour
neutral - Answer Nature of Water
Overall a molecule of water is electrically __
Thus, water is a polar molecule capable of forming 4 hydrogen bonds with other
molecules
negative - Answer water
Distribution of charges: Oxygen tends to attract electrons making it slightly ___
positive - Answer water
Hydrogen side is slightly ___
hydrogen - Answer Thus, water is a polar molecule capable of forming 4 ___ bonds with
other molecules
, states - Answer 2 hydorgen bonds with oxygen , the 3 __ of water depend on the extent
to which the molecules of hydrogen are bonded
hydrogen - Answer Nature of Water
Freezing and boiling points of water are higher than those of similar compounds
because of strength of ___ bonding
bonded - Answer three states of water
The 3 states of water depend on the extent to which the molecules of hydrogen are __
breaking - Answer Liquid state of water
Between 0 and 100°C.
Flow properties are due to H bonds that link adjacent molecules
H bonds are constantly __ and reforming
Crystalline - Answer ___: Lowest energy
densest - Answer Solid state of water: ice
Crystalline: Lowest energy
Motion of molecules is slowed
Hydrogen bonds last longer
Water is ___ at 4°C (1 g/mL)
Molecules begin to associate in a precise arrangement
latent - Answer Solid state of water: __ heat of fusion
At 0°C the actual phenomenon of freezing takes place
79.6 cal/g (332.6 j/g) are removed from the system
This removal of heat is not accompanied by change of temperature
When ice is melting this heat is needed to disrupt H bonds and melt the ice, but not to
increase the temperature
After ice melts, temperature begins to rise
freezing - Answer the latent heat of fusion is the __/melting of water and ice
less - Answer As a result of expansion (9%) ice is __ dense than water
-tomato in the freezer
