Question
Home-made fruit juices are turbid, while the bottled ,fruit juices purchased from the market are clear. Give a reason for this difference.
Solution
Bottled juices are transparent because they have been filtered and clarified and they frequently contain additives to maintain their stability and clarity. Because homemade juices are less processed and do not contain additions that alter their appearance, they are turbid due to the natural pulp and fibres of the fruits.
