In this video, we demonstrate a straightforward method to test for the presence of fats in a food sample, utilizing the basic principles of solubility in polar and nonpolar solvents like ethanol and water. This quick and easy test will help you determine if your food contains fats by observing changes in the solution's appearance. • To start, add a small amount of the food sample into a clean test tube. The sample size can vary depending on the food type. Introduce about 2 cubic centimeters of ethanol, a nonpolar solvent that effectively dissolves lipids, into the test tube. Secure the test tube and shake the mixture thoroughly to allow the ethanol to interact with any lipids present. After shaking, add approximately 2 cubic centimeters of water, a polar solvent. Observe the solution carefully: a clear solution indicates no fats, while a cloudy or milky appearance signifies the presence of fats. • #FatsTest #FoodChemistry #LipidContent #SolubilityTest #ScienceExperiment • ********************************************************* • Sites • LearnStalk Books: https://learnstalk.com/product-catego... • Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/author/learnst... • Social media • FB @learnstalk • Instagram @learnstalk • Twitter @learnstalk
