An iodine solution is placed on the cut side of a potato. With in seconds, a blue-black color appears thus showing "positive test for starches".

<u>Option:</u> B

<u>Explanation:</u>

Amylose in starch is accountable in the existence of iodine for production of a deep blue shade. Within the amylose coil the iodine molecule slips. Attach a solution or directly to a potato or other products such as pasta, crackers, or flour with Iodine-KI reagent. If starch is available a blue-black color results.

If starch amylose is not available then orange or yellow will remain the color. Variations in some inorganic reactions to the reduction of oxidation, iodine may be used as an indicator for following changes in iodide ion and iodine product. Soluble solvent is applied to the starch.

How can I use MIE scattering to determine the best particle size to light scattering with glasses?
Gwar [14]

Answer:

There is a simple algebraic formula relating turbidity to optical properties. You do not need Mie theory. It is given in van de Hulst "Light scattering from small particles" (a nice cheap reprint from Dover Press). More easily accessible are any of the Mie calculators avaiable on the Internet, say Miecalc, these will give the exact result.

Answer: B. Water breaks down into oxygen molecules for respiration.  


Water is the required for photosynthesis, a process by which plants (terrestrial and aquatic) makes their food by utilizing water as a reactant to produce oxygen and glucose as product. The glucose act as a source of energy for conducting various metabolic processes in plants but oxygen is released in the air.

6CO_2\ \ \ \ +6H_2O\rightarrow\ C_6H_{12}O_6+6O_2\\carbon\ \ \ \ water\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ glucose\ \ \ \ \ \ \ oxygen\\ dioxide

This oxygen is necessary for terrestrial and aquatic animals for respiration. Therefore, water breaks down into oxygen by the process of photosynthesis, hence water plays important role in respiration in living beings.

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

When two or more atoms link up, they create a molecule . A molecule of water is made of two atoms of hydrogen (H) and one atom of oxygen (O). The molecular mass is the sum of the masses of all the atoms in the molecule. A collection of molecules is called a compound.
