Preguntas frecuentes
- How does the low-sodium designation affect the density compared to regular prepared chicken noodle soup?
- Sodium content has a negligible effect on density at the concentrations present in soup. The 1.048 g/ml density of this low-sodium version is driven by the same factors as regular chicken noodle soup, namely the starch from noodles, protein from chicken, and dissolved gelatin in the broth. The reduced salt means less sodium chloride dissolved in the liquid, but salt contributes so little mass relative to the total volume that the density difference is imperceptible.
- Why is this soup listed in its prepared state rather than condensed?
- Some canned soups are catalogued in their prepared form because that is how consumers actually use them in recipes and at the table. The density of 1.048 g/ml reflects the diluted, ready-to-eat product after adding water, which is the relevant measurement for anyone portioning the soup for serving or incorporating it into a recipe that calls for prepared soup.
