Citrus foods are not stored in metal containers because the the acid in the citric foods react to metal.
Use two electrodes of dissimilar metal (eg. nickel and copper). Stick them in the bannana. A small voltage will be developed across the two electrodes, due to the mild acid in the bannana. Most fruits (and seeds) will work this way, citrus fruits are better, due to the strength of the acid.
No, citric acid is not a compound of sodium. Citric acid is a weak organic acid found in citrus fruits, while sodium is a metal that forms compounds like sodium chloride (table salt). They are two distinct chemical substances.
Acidic foods like pickles can react with metal containers, causing the metal to leach into the food. This can affect the taste of the pickles and may even be harmful if consumed in large amounts. It is safer to store pickles in glass or food-safe plastic containers.
You should never cook fruits in an unlined copper pan because if it is an acidic fruit it can react with the copper and can cause poisoning. Copper is a reactive metal. Similarly, it is not wise to store foods in copper pans.
Galvanized metal containers are suitable for transporting a variety of foods, particularly those that are non-acidic and do not react with metal, such as grains, nuts, dried fruits, and flour. They can also be used for bulk items like sugar and rice. However, it's important to ensure that the container is clean and food-safe to prevent contamination. Avoid using them for acidic foods like tomatoes or citrus, as these can corrode the metal.
Steel and and other metal vessels.

Acids react with metal by dissolving it. Over time, acidic foods will react with metal containers or cooking vessels, even weak acids. I'm not a doctor so I cannot comment on health effects, if any, of this. However, there will be a noticeable effect on the flavor and color of the food.
