Best Answer

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)

What is the relationship between amino acids and proteins?

Proteins are made up of (long strings of) amino acids.Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. There are around 20 amino acids in total. By joining together they form long chain proteins.


What are some acids which are neutralised by bases?

any acid is buffered by a base. Acids are low pH and bases are high. it depends on the relationship between the two as to which combination will result in a neutral pH.

What is the role condensation and hydrolysis in the relationship between amino acids and dipeptides?

Hydrolysis reactions break apart dipeptides to make two amino acids. Condensation (dehydration) reactions take two amino acids and make one dipeptide.


Is hydrogen peroxide a base or acid?

Hydrogen peroxide is a weak acid. Generally, acids distinguishable by the hydrogen proton, while bases are generally anything with a hydroxide. For instance, hydrochloric acid, or HCl, can be distinguished by the H+ bonded with Cl-. NaOH on the other hand, is a bond between Na+ and OH-. As acids are proton donors, and bases are proton acceptors, it makes sense that the H+ from any acid bonds with the OH- of a base in order to form H2O.
