Answer:

A

Explanation:

These are the properties of an acidic solution. The higher the H+ ions in the solution the higher the acidity. H+ is also a measure of pH because pH is the negative log of the H+ ions in a solution. The more the H+ ions, the lower the pH of the solution. The H+ ions also allow the solution to conduct electricity because they take up the electrons and transport across from the anode to the cathode. Acidic solutions are also corrosive because they are highly oxidizing – the H+ ions accept electrons to turn to H₂ gas.

Answer:

Diffusion.

Explanation:

According to the information given before the example in the question and considering the fact that the bag was secured on both ends before being placed in the solution, provided that there were no holes on the surface of the bag, the iodine solution could have diffused through the bag into the starch solution hence the color change to black after 30 minutes.
