How do the results of the iodine test indicate that hydrolysis of starch occurred

Chemistry
1 answer:
Irina18 [472]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Blue color of iodine-starch complex is disappear upon hysrolysis

Explanation:

Starch:

Starch is a polysaccharide

it is energy reservoir.

starch is made of monomers of glucose in a chain form.

The simplest form of starch is linear polymer amylose.

Iodine Test:

In this test iodine solution added to the solution to check the presence of starch.  

Iodine solution = elemental iodine + KI

Result of Iodine Test:

when the iodine solution (I₃⁻) is added to a solution it show two types of result.

if the starch is present this I₃⁻ form a complex with amylose chain of starch and impart a dark blue color.

if starch is not present then the color will be orange or yellow.

Hydrolysis of Starch:

Hydrolysis of starch is carried out by an enzyme, this enzyme break down the starch into simpler sugar molecule.

So,

When the hydrolysis of starch occur the starch convert to glucose. Then the blue color of starch and iodine complex formed during iodine test is disappear that will be the indication of hydrolysis of starch.

Wich statement best describes the difference between strong nuclear forces and weak nuclear forces
Vika [28.1K]

Answer: option D is right.

Explanation: There are four types of fundamental forces in nature.These are named as gravitational force,electromagnetic force,strong nuclear force and weak nuclear force.

As per the question we have to understand the role of strong nuclear force and weak nuclear force.

An atom consists of a nucleus surrounded by extra nuclear part consisting of electrons in various orbits.The nucleus contains two basic particles called protons and neutrons .Protons are positively charged while neutrons are neutral.Protons being positively charged will impart repulsive force on each other and may come out of the nucleus.But the nucleus is stable.That is due to the strong nuclear force.

Strong nuclear force is a spin dependent and charge independent force which comes into existence due to the mutual interaction of gluons which binds the protons and neutrons .Hence it is attractive in nature.It's 100 times more stronger than electromagnetic force also.

Weak nuclear force comes into existence during radio -active decay .This force is due to the exchange of ' w' and 'z' bosons[the particles like protons and neutrons having integral or zero spin] which are heavier in nature.The role of it is to change protons into neutrons and vice versa.Its a short range force.

Hence the option D is right.

What is the mass of an atom with 7 protons, and 7 neutrons?
klio [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

Nitrogen has an atomic number of 7 (Z=7) because it has 7 protons in its nucleus. Some nitrogen atoms have an atomic mass number of 15 (A=15). A is the number of neutrons plus protons in the nucleus. However, we already know that there are 7 protons.
