Pickles are preserved by soaking cucumbers in a vinegar solution. What are some properties of these pickles?

Respuesta :

They taste acidic because they have absorbed vinegar
Their color changes from a bright green to a dark one
The cucumbers also lose some water to the solution due to the lower water potential of the solution

Pickled cucumber tastes tart as they are soaked in the mildly acidic vinegar. Vinegar and salt solutions are poured in the cucumber, which is then stored. The brine solution causes osmosis of water from the pickle into the vinegar solution. Pickled cucumbers are important to maintain electrolyte balance.
