Question

name the gas release when we cut onions​

Answer 1

Answer:

Lachrymatory-factor synthase is released into the air when we cut an onion. The synthase enzyme converts the amino acids sulfoxides of the onion into sulfenic acid. The unstable sulfenic acid rearranges itself into syn-ropanethial-S-oxide. Syn-propanethial-S-oxide gets into the air and comes in contact with our eyes.

Answer 2

Answer:

Use a sharp knife to cut the onion—you'll release less of the enzymes into the air. Cut onions in cold water. Cut the root last—it has a higher concentration of enzymes. Chill or freeze onions to minimize the amount of gas released into the air.$....$
