Take sweetness (relative to sucrose, mass for mass) as: saccharin 550, aspartame 100, sucralose 600, alitame 2000. Select the correct statements.
A0.10 g of saccharin matches the sweetness of 55 g of sucrose.
B0.20 g of aspartame matches the sweetness of 20 g of sucrose.
C3.0 g of sucralose matches the sweetness of 1800 g of sucrose.
D0.50 g of alitame matches the sweetness of 2000 g of sucrose.
Answer: A, B, C
Equivalent sucrose mass = mass of sweetener x factor. Saccharin: 0.10 x 550 = 55 g. Aspartame: 0.20 x 100 = 20 g. Sucralose: 3.0 x 600 = 1800 g. Alitame: 0.50 x 2000 = 1000 g, not 2000 g, so statement 4 is false.
