Best Answer

When you put lemon juice on a piece of paper, then place the paper on a heat source, the parts soaked with the juice will burn faster and turn a dark brown.

This chemical reaction is based upon the properties that define acids and bases. The paper with the acid lemon juice is weakened by the acid, and will burn faster.

What impact did invisible ink have on society?

Invisible ink was invented by Benjamin Franklin and is currently used in government documents as a secret code. Benjamin Franklin used lemon juice as the first invisible ink. The acid in the lemon juice weakens the paper where it has been spread. Therefore, if the paper is held over a candle or another heat source, the area where the lemon juice was spread will burn more easily. This will reveal the placement of the lemon juice.

Does lemon juice burn calories?

Lemons contain high doses of vitamin C which, according to a 2007 study published in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition by researchers at Arizona State University, could decrease fat deposits and waist circumference. But no matter how hot lemon juice is, lemon juice simply cannot break down fats."A simple lemon water can be made with either fresh squeezed lemon or bottled juice. The balance of juice to water should be prepared by taste. Add honey for desired sweetness.People with a citrus allergy, heartburn, kidney and gall-bladder problems, and children under the age of 4 should not drink lemon juice. Never drink the juice undiluted. The high acid content of lemon juice can damage the enamel of your teeth.

How do you make your hair blonde with lemons?

You don't. If you have Brown or Black hair it will not get blond with lemon juice. Second of all, don't pour lemon juice on your head. It has acid and will burn your scalp resulting to loss of hair (hair falling off your head) Grab a brush, dip it in some freshly squeezed lemon juice and brush it on your hair. Not your scalp. Only works if you have med-brown hair, and will not go blond. It will probably be a tint lighter.
