Statement 1: White wines do not contain the red pigments due to the lack of tannins and extracts.
True, retard growth of contaminating organisms
True, prevent escape of gases
None of the mentioned
False, neither of the mentioned
Explanation:
White wines do not contain the red pigments due to the lack of tannin and extracts. Sulphur dioxide is added to crush grapes to retard growth of contaminating organisms.
Question 3

Pass Ratio : 100%
A vinegar containing 5 grams of acetic acid per 100 cubic centimeters is referred to as _____
0.5 grain
5 grain
50 grain
500 grain
Explanation:
A vinegar containing 5 grams of acetic acid per 100 cubic centimeters is referred to as 50 grain. Percentage times ten gives the strength of vinegar in grain. Hence 5*10=50.
Question 4

Pass Ratio : 100%
Which of the following is included in vinegar fermentation?
Transform sugar into alcohol, by yeast
Change alcohol into acetic acid using vinegar bacteria
Transform sugar into alcohol, by yeast & Changing alcohol into acetic acid using vinegar bacteria
Neither of the mentioned
Explanation:
In Vinegar fermentation, first, sugar is transformed into alcohol, by yeast. This is followed by changing alcohol into acetic acid using vinegar bacteria. The second process can only start after the first one has ended.

Which of the following about vinegar making and manufacturing is true?
Vinegar bacteria grow in the fermented juice liquid and on the surface. They don’t always form a film on the surface
After acetic fermentation, vinegar should not be exposed to air as it may further oxidize to carbon dioxide and water
All storage tanks/ units of vinegar should be closed
All of the mentioned
Explanation:
All of the mentioned is true about vinegar making and manufacturing.
Question 6
