SOLUTION
• Homogeneous mixture of one material dissolved in another
•
Solute is material dissolved
•
Solvent is what dissolves the solute
•
Water is a common solvent
PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL CHANGES
• Physical changes involve change in shape, physical state, or temperature
• Phase changes--- solid, liquid or gas
•
Release CO2 from soda
NON NEWTONIAN FLUID
• Characteristics of liquids and solid
• Example; ¼ c corn starch + 2 T water
CHEMICAL CHANGES
• New substances with different chemical and physical properties
•
•
Produce changes in
•
Color
•
Odor
•
Flavor
•
Release of gas
Baking soda and acid in muffins create co2 as leavener
PHYSICAL OR CHEMICAL CHANGE?
• Brewing tea
• Sweetening lemonade
• Browning pork chops
• Basting a turkey as it roasts
• Slicing tomatoes
PERMANENT VS REVERSIBLE CHANGES
• Reversible freezing juice and thawing
• Food digestion is reversible- energy stored as fat can be released and turned back to glucose
CHEMICAL EQUATIONS
• Law of conservation of
matter= matter is changed,
but not created or destroyed

…CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF FOOD CONSTITUENTS AND
HOW THOSE CONSTITUENTS AFFECT THE PHYSICAL
PROPERTIES OF FOODS”
• Tissues vs Dispersions
• Major and Minor food
components
MIXTURES
• Small Particle systems
•
= less than 600 microns
• Particles of one substance are distributed (disperse phase) in another substance (continuous phase)
•
WITHOUT Dissolving
FOOD/ COLLOIDAL DISPERSIONS
• Small Particle systems
•
= less than 600 microns
• Particles of one substance are distributed (disperse phase) in another substance (continuous phase)
•
WITHOUT Dissolving
CHARACTERS OF COLLOIDAL DISPERSIONS
• A.
PG 680-690
continuous plus dispersed phase
• B. continuous phase are small molecules
• C. dispersed phase are colloids ( particles / macromolecules/ clumps of molecules)
• Examples: jelly, mayonnaise , butter, gelatin
TYPES OF COLLOIDAL DISPERSIONS
•Foams
•Emulsions
•Gels
EXAMPLE: FOAMS
• Dispersion of gas in a liquid
• Cake frosting
• Air beaten into the white is the dispersed phase
• Egg white protein is the continuous phase
COLLOID VS SOLUTE
colloid
• Up to 1000x larger particles
• Larger size causes dispersing not dissolving
• No notable impact on freezing and boiling point
• Bend/ reflect a laser passing through it
•
So laser light is visible within it
solute
• Laser light isn’t visible within it, only on each
side of the container.
• Concentration of particle affects freeze/ boil
point
Tyndall effect
FACTORS THAT KEEP COLLOIDS DISPERSED
1.Motion of the molecules 2.Electrical charge
• The lower the mass of the smaller particles of
the continuous phase, they move faster.
• Same substances have same charge
• Molecular motion keeps them dispersed
• The polarity of water cushions the colloid and
keeps it from sticking to itself and settling out
• Like charges repel, pushing colloids away from
each other
EFFECTS OF PARTICLE DENSITY
• The density of particles can make them separate if mixture is not constantly stirred.
•
ie) starch sinking to bottom of pan
•
Milk protein scorching on bottom of pan

MILK IS A COLLOIDAL DISPERSION AND A SOLUTION
colloidal dispersion
• Proteins in milk - stable
solution
• Lactose
• Mineral salts
• Both dissolved in the water
Fat particles – unstable until homogenization occurs
EMULSIONSTWO IMMISCIBLE LIQUIDS WHERE ONE IS DISPERSED IN
DROPLET FORM INTO THE OTHER
how emulsions work
• Two types
• Oil in water
water in oil
E.G. EMULSIONSTWO IMMISCIBLE LIQUIDS WHERE ON IS DISPERSED IN DROPLET FORM IN THE OTHER
External phase=water
External =
Continuous
phase
Internal =
Dispersed
phase
External phase= oil/fat
Oil/water emulsion
(liquid emulsion)
Oil IN water
(water/ oil emulsion
(solid emulsion)
Water IN oil
Eg. Milk, mayo,
salad dressings
Eg. Margarine, butter
Solidify during processing
EMULSIFIERS
• One polar and one nonpolar end
• Most emulsifiers require beating, agitation, or stirring
MAYONNAISE
• % of fat in mayonnaise = about 65%
• Oil phase in highest proportion’
• Remains Oil/ water (not water/ oil)
•
Unatural emulsion
• Difficult to prepare
• Unstable
• Adding oil----RATE AND ORDER is IMPORTANT
• Emulsifier
MAYONNAISE
• Oil is dispersed in vinegar ( water) with egg yolk as the emulsifier
• Egg yolk surrounds the oil droplets scattered throughout
• Vinegar or lemon juice also provide an acidic environment to ensure the presence of charged groups on
the protein

FOAMS:
COLLOIDAL DISPERSIONS OF GAS OR AIR BUBBLES DISPERSED IN A LIQUID
• Example) foams atop of soda/beer are unstable foams
•
whip topping, meringue, whipped cream are stable foams
• For stability 4 conditions needed:
• 1. viscous liquid ( thickness of liquid + elastic nature of protein)
• 2. dispersion needs a stabilizer to form around air bubbles
• 3. surface tension of the bubbles formed need to be less than water in the food.
• 4. the liquid needs a low vapor pressure
•
FACTORS THAT AFFECT FOAM STABILITY
• 1. temperature of ingredients, utensils, room
• 2. addition of solutes
• what( sugar bonds to hydrogen of water/ increases the viscosity)
• When
• How
• 3. Acidity
• Cream of tartar
• Age of eggs
• 4. no fat allowed
• From egg yolk
• From equipment
•
’
SUSPENSIONS
MIXTURE OF UNDISSOLVED PARTICLES IN A LIQUID
• MILK is a complex mixture: suspension and colloidal dispersion
•
Fat
and protein particles
• The larger the particles, the thicker, more viscous suspension must be
• Batters vs doughs
•
1 part liquid : 1 part dry
vs
1 part liquid : 3-4 parts dry
