Q12. Name the two acids which are present in the food items you enjoy.
 

Dear student
There are many acids which are present in fruits and vegetables. For example fruits like lemon, lime and orange contain citric acid. Tomato contains oxalic acid, tamarind contains tartaric acid. Malic acid is present in grapes.
Apart from these, acids are present in food items as well. For example
1) Vinegar, which is added to many food items for flavor, is acetic acid.

 2) Jams and jellies contain citric acid.

Some other are:
  1. Lemon Juice - Citric acid
  2. Vinegar - Acetic Acid
  3. Tamarind -tartaric acid
  4. Tomato - Oxalic acid
  5. Orange - Citric acid
  6. Curd - Lactic Acid
Hope it is clear
Regards
