Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

When we dip onion in NaOH (sodium hydroxide) solution, then the smell of onion disappear.

This is because onion is olfactory indicator, this helps us to understand about the solution whether it is acid or basic in nature by change in smell. And NaOH is a base and hence smell goes.

In onion ascorbic acid (C6H8O6) is persent and NaOH is base, when they react form Sodium ascorbate (salt) and water.

C6H8O6 + NaOH→NaC6H7O6 + H2O
