प्रश्न

Give scientific reasons:

On boiling egg albumin becomes opaque white.

टीपा लिहा

उत्तर

  1. Proteins when subjected to high temperature undergo disruption of noncovalent interactions which are responsible for the specific shape of protein. That is, it undergoes denaturation.
  2. Denaturation disturbs the specific structure of egg albumin which causes a change in the physical properties.
    Thus, on boiling egg albumin becomes opaque white.
