Water is an essential constituent of many foods. It may occur as an intracellular or extracellular component in vegetable and animal products, as a dispersing medium or solvent in a variety of products, as the dispersed phase in some emulsified products such as butter and margarine, and as a minor constituent in other foods. Table 1-1 indicates the wide range of water content in foods. Because of the importance of water as a food constituent, an understanding of its properties and behavior is necessary. The presence of water influences the chemical and microbiological deterioration of foods. Also, removal (drying) or freezing of water is essential to some methods of food preservation. Fundamental changes in the product may take place in both instances. PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF WATER AND ICE Some of the physical properties of water and ice are exceptional, and a list of these is presented in Table 1-2. Much of this information was obtained from Perry (1963) and Landolt-Boernstein (1923). The exceptionally high values of the caloric properties of water are of importance for food processing Table 1-1 Typical Water Contents of Some Selected Foods Product Water (%) Tomato 95 Lettuce 95 Cabbage 92 Beer 90 Orange 87 Apple juice 87 Milk 87 Potato 78 Banana 75 Chicken 70 Salmon, canned 67 Meat 65 Cheese 37 Bread, white 35 Jam 28 Honey 20 Butter and margarine 16 Wheat flour 12 Rice 12 Coffee beans, roasted 5 Milk powder 4 Shortening O operations such as freezing and drying.

and ice may result in structural damage to foods when they are frozen. The density of ice changes with changes in temperature, resulting in stresses in frozen foods. Since solids are much less elastic than semisolids, structural damage may result from fluctuating temperatures, even if the fluctuations remain below the freezing point. STRUCTURE OF THE WATER MOLECULE The reason for the unusual behavior of water lies in the structure of the water molecule (Figure 1-1) and in the molecule's ability to form hydrogen bonds.

Figure 1-1 Structure of the Water Molecule of 105 degrees, and the distance between the nuclei of hydrogen and oxygen is 0.0957 nm. The water molecule can be considered a spherical quadrupole with a diameter of 0.276 nm, where the oxygen nucleus forms the center of the quadrupole. The two negative and two positive charges form the angles of a regular tetrahedron. Because of the separation of charges in a water molecule, the attraction between neighboring molecules is higher than is normal with van der Waals' forces. that water has unusually high values for certain physical constants, such as melting point, boiling point, heat capacity, latent heat of fusion, latent heat of vaporization, surface tension, and dielectric constant. Some of these values are listed in Table 1-3. Water may influence the conformation of macromolecules if it has an effect on any of the noncovalent bonds that stabilize the conformation of the large molecule (Klotz 1965). These noncovalent bonds may be one of three kinds: hydrogen bonds, ionic bonds, or apolar bonds. In proteins, competition exists between interamide hydrogen bonds and water-amide hydrogen bonds. According to Klotz (1965), the binding energy of such bonds can be measured by changes in the near-infrared spectra of solutions in TV-methylacetamide. The greater the hydrogen bonding ability of the solvent, the weaker the C=O-H-N bond. In aqueous solvents the heat of formation or disruption of this bond is zero. This means that a C=O-H-N hydrogen bond cannot provide stabilization in aqueous solutions. The competitive hydrogen bonding by H2O lessens the thermodynamic tendency toward the formation of interamide hydrogen bonds. The water molecules around an apolar solute become more ordered, leading to a loss in entropy. As a result, separated apolar groups in an aqueous environment tend to Table 1-3 Physical Properties of Some Hydrides In ice, every H2O molecule is bound by four such bridges to each neighbor. The binding energy of the hydrogen bond in ice amounts to 5 kcal per mole (Pauling 1960). Similar strong interactions occur between OH and NH and between small, strongly electronegative atoms such as O and N. This is the reason for the strong association in alcohols, fatty acids, and amines and their great affinity to water.
