Answer:
Curs and citrus fruits contain acids. Therefore, when they stored in brass and copper containers, the metal reacts with acid and start releasing hydrogen gas and other harmful products which spoils the food. So, curd and citrus food should not be stored in copper or brass vessel.
Explanation:
Curd and citrus food substances must not be stored in brass or copper containers because of the following reasons:
- Curd and citrus food substances are both acidic substances and hence secrets acids.
- Acids combine with metals to form salt and hydrogen gas.
- When acidic things like curd are stored in brass or copper containers, the lactic acid in the curd and citric acid in the citrus fruits reacts with the metals, causing corrosion and the formation of toxic salts that cannot be digested.
- If such compounds are stored in brass or copper containers, the acid will react and corrode the container.
- Because of this the food can spoil.
- Copper and brass metals are very reactive by nature, and when they are stored, the naturally acidic scale reacts with the metals, displacing hydrogen ions from the acid and releasing hydrogen gas from it.
