Among the following, turmeric powder is not entirely soluble in water. (Option a)

  • Turmeric has both water-soluble and water-insoluble constituents in them.
  • Turmeric is the underground stem called the rhizome of the plant.
  • The main constituent of the turmeric powder is curcumin, a bright yellow-colored compound that gives the powder its color, antioxidative, and mild acidic property.
  • Curcumin is soluble in alkaline pH but, insoluble in acidic and neutral pH.
  • Hence, curcumin is not soluble in water and this makes turmeric powder insoluble in water.
