i. A qualitative test for proteins: Xanthoproteic test
Experimental Material | Observation | Inference |
(a) Urine | Yellow precipitate | The formation of yellow precipitate suggests the presence of protein in the food material |
(b) Water | No precipitate |
ii. A qualitative test for fats: Emulsification test
Experimental Material | Observation | Inference |
(a) Sweat | Oil droplets | Formation of oil droplets i.e., emulsification signifies the presence of fats in the provided food material. |
(b) Water | No oil droplet |
iii. A qualitative test for oils: Paper test
Experimental Material | Observation | Inference |
(a) Food material (sample) |
Paper turns into a Translucent |
Opaque paper becomes translucent which suggests the presence of fats in the food material |
(b) Water | Paper gets soggy |
