when the food is exposed to oxygen for a long time rancidity occurs. for example, let us take the chips packet ; the packet is filled with nitrogen in order to prevent oxidation.

What are examples of microbial rancidity?
spoiling of bread by keeping it outside for many days
Harmful and unharmful effects of oxidation reaction?
my answer is that oxidation gives rise to rancidity and coorosion
What is the general name of the chemical which are added to fat and oil containing food to prevent the development of the rancidity?
This is a preservative.
Relationship between Free fatty acids and Peroxide value in edible oil?
When edible oil is exposed to air, it is attacked by atmospheric oxygen which yields free fatty acids in the oil and this leads to a process called rancidity. Peroxide value measures the amount of rancidity that has taken place. Ejike(swaggalicious)

How you check rancidity?
we can check rancidity thru two methods :- check the smell usually it becomes foul and see if the the fats and oils are oxidized ,if yes then it is rancidity.
What is a major cause of rancidity of lipids in foods is exposure to?
Rancidity is caused by hydrolysis and oxidation. Heat, moisture and exposure to light will increase these chemical reactions and thus increase the likelikhood of the onset of rancidity.
What type of reaction take place in rancidity?
chemical reaction takes place in rancidity
Which two antioxidants which are usually added to fat and oil containing foods to present rancidity?
There are two types of rancidity: oxidative rancidity and hydrolytic rancidity. Citric acid and phosphoric acid are added to prevent rancidity in fats. Other antioxidants include butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA)and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT).
How do you minimize rancidity?
we could minimize rancidity by adding anti oxidents(which prevents oxidation) to food items.
What are the by-products of rancidity?
rancidity food are very wasted food for our health because there oil and oil are faty

What is an explanation of the term rancidity?
Rancidity means having a rank, unpleasant, stale smell or taste, as through decomposition, especially of fats or oils.
How do you preserve cereal?
Keep water and oxygen out. Both of these contribute to rancidity reactions and microbial growth. Cereals typically have about 3% moisture, though most of this water is not available for any chemistry to occur. Even so, water within cereal will ultimately lead to rancidity. Sealing your cereal and freezing it is probably your best bet if you want to really make it last.
