Answer:

c) citric acid is the right answer

Explanation:

Citric acid is an organic acid that is a component of all aerobic living organisms—most abundantly, and not surprisingly, in citrus fruit. This weak acid has been used as an additive in processed foods for more than 100 years as a preservative, a sour flavoring, or an emulsifying agent.

Spoilage of food can be avoided by the use of citric acid.

Explanation:

  • When food is exposed to air for a longer period of time then micro-organisms and bacteria present in the air get deposited on the surface of food. As a result, the bacteria gets multiplied due to which a rotten smell occurs after sometime.
  • When food is spoiled then there will occur a change in its color and appearance as compared to the fresh food. Due to these changes the spoilage of food can be easily detected.
  • Generally, a preservative like citric acid is used to avoid spoilage of food. A preservative helps  in decreasing the growth of bacteria on food.
