In the manufacture of Vanaspati Ghee/Banaspati Ghee which gas is used ?
Correct answer: A. Hydrogen
- A. Hydrogen
- B. Oxygen
- C. Nitrogen
- D. Carbon dioxide
Explanation
Hydrogen is added to vegetable oils during hydrogenation, converting some unsaturated fats into the semi-solid fat used in vanaspati ghee. Oxygen would promote oxidation rather than harden the oil in this process.
