Home made jams and jellies without any added chemical preservative additives spoil in a few days whereas commercial jams and jellies have a long shelf life. Explain. What role does added sodium benzoate play ? |
|
Answer» Sodium benzoate added to jams and jellies in commercial products maintains the pH constant and acts as a preservative. Hence jams and jellies are not spoiled for a very long time unlike homemade products. |
