Question 12 -
Why is vacuum created in the can during canning of food items?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The reduced internal pressure (vacuum) helps to keep the can ends drawn in, reduces strain on the containers during processing, and minimizes the level of oxygen remaining in the headspace.

It also helps to extend the shelf life of food products and prevents bulging of the container at high altitudes.
