Answer 2

$Hey\:There$‼

$RANCIDITY$ is a process in which food material gets spoiled when it comes in contact with oxygen. It leads to the change in taste and smell of food materials.

For example, butter gets spoiled due to oxidation at room temperature if kept for a longer time, it becomes sour in taste and gives a foul smell.

The product formed on oxidation of food is rancid and such process is called rancidity.

↪ We can overcome it by the following methods :-

1 • Add $antioxidants$ to the food materials.

2 • $Refrigeration$ of the food materials also prevent rancidity.

3 • $Nitrogen\:flushing$ prevents the oxidation of food.
