To determine amount of oxalate ion in guava fruit during different stages of ripening?

Answer 1

Take 10 gms of fresh guava & crus it into a fine pulp using pestle-mortar.

Transfer the pulp to a beaker and add 50ml of dil.H2SO4.

Boil the contents for about 10 mins.

Cool and filter the contents into a 100ml measuring cylinder.

Make up the volume upto 100ml by adding distilled water.

Tae 20ml of the solution in a titration flask and add 20ml of dil.H2SO4 to it.

Heat te mixture to about 60C and titrate it against N/20 KMNO4 solution taken in the burette.

End point: Appearance of pale pink color.....

This should be done with different guavas at their different stages of ripening.

Answer 2

Take a small amount of juice of the fruit filter it dilute with water and add vinegar to expel the carbonate then add small quantity of lime water the white precipitates confirm the presence of oxalate ions.

Answer 3

To determine the amount of oxalate ion in guava fruit during different stages of ripening, you can conduct an extraction of oxalate ions from the fruit using a suitable solvent followed by quantification using techniques like titration or spectrophotometry. Sample the guava fruit at different ripening stages and compare the oxalate ion concentrations obtained. This will give you an idea of how the oxalate content changes during the ripening process.

Answer 4

Project 1

Title

Study the variation in the amount of oxalate ions in guava fruit at different stages

of ripening.

Objective

The objective of this project is to investigate the variation in the amount of oxalate

ions present in guava at different stages of its ripening (i.e. unripe, parialy ripe

and fully ripe).

Brief Procedure

Collect different samples of guava fruit (green, pale-green, yellowish-white and

yellowish, i.e. from unripe to fully ripe variety). Take100 grams of one of the

sample of guava fruit, crush it into a mortar and transfer the paste in 100 mL of

water. Boil the contents for 10-15 minutes and filter. Take the filtrate, add about

5mL of dilute sulphuric acid and titrate it against 0.001M KMnO4 solution. Repeat

the procedure with other samples of guava and draw conclusion.

Answer 5

presence of oxalate ion is high in guava about 60 percentege of guava contains oxalate ions ,oxalate ions present in guava increases with ripening..

Answer 6

This was to see the effects of air on the oxidation and ripening of the fruit. Observations were made to see how each fruit reacted.

Answer 7

Oxalate ion is high in guava about 60 percent. Oxalate ions present in guava is type hh, kf, and nn. The percentage decreases as the fruit ripens.
