Molecular orbital theory rests on the notion that atomic orbitals are combined to form molecular orbitals. Because electron density from each atom is spread out over the span of the entire molecule, the electrons are lowered in energy. This accounts for the stabilization that occurs during bonding.
Hot-Smoked Salmon. Hot-smoked salmon produces fish that is cooked entirely through. The process, which occurs between 120 and 180 degrees Fahrenheit, takes between six and 12 hours. Unlike cold-smoked salmon, hot-smoked salmon flakes and is most frequently sold in filets rather than slices or sides. A 3-ounce serving of hot-smoked salmon contains 99 calories per serving but only 571 milligrams of sodium. It contains the same amount of phosphorous and potassium as cold-smoked salmon.
Shelf Life When Opened. Once the packaging is opened on either type of fish, it will need to be refrigerated and consumed within five days. Neither hot nor cold smoked salmon should be eaten if it has been left out at room temperature for more than two hours.or smoking, the fish is usually brined and then placed in a smoker for several hours. The length of time is dependent on the desired texture of the fish. Some companies will then vacuum seal the fish and cook it, much like the canning process, allowing for a shelf life of up to five years.
