What reagent is used to test for starch​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Elodia [21]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

iodine

Explanation:

In the presence of starch, iodine turns a blue/black colour. It is possible to distinguish starch from glucose (and other carbohydrates) using this iodine solution test. For example, if iodine is added to a peeled potato then it will turn black. Benedict's reagent can be used to test for glucose.

How does the vegetation surface type affect the amount of runoff
maxonik [38]

Answer:

<em>The type of vegetation a surface does affect the </em><em>water coming from above to sink in or runoff. </em>

Explanation:

This is how the vegetation affects the runoff:-

The leaves and stems present in the vegetation do not let the water fall directly on the soil and makes the process rather slow which makes the water to get to the ground slowly and sink in properly inside the soil rather than running off.

If the vegetation present is dense with  there was being hairy then also the water would not run out and will get absorbed by the roots letting the soil intact

In 1911, Ernest Rutherford tested the atomic model existing at the time by shooting a beam of alpha particles (42He, helium nucl
STatiana [176]

Answer:

At the time of Rutherford's experiment, the accepted model for the atom was the Thomson plum-pudding model of the atom, in which the atom consists of a "sphere" of positive charge distributed all over the sphere, with tiny negative particles (the electrons) inside this sphere.

In his experiment, Rutherford shot alpha particles towards a very thin sheet of gold foil. He observed the following things:

1- Most of the alpha particles went undeflected, but

2- Some of them were scattered at very large angles

3- A few of them were even reflected back to their original directions

Observations 2) and 3) were incompatible with Thomson model of the atom: in fact, if this model was true, all the alpha particle should have gone undeflected, or scattered at very small angles. Instead, due to observations 2) and 3), it was clear that:

- The positive charge of the atom was all concentred in a tiny nucleus

- Most of the mass of the atom was also concentrated in the nucleus

So, Rutherford experiment lead to a change in the atomic model of the atom, as it was clear that the plum-pudding model was no longer adequate to describe the results of Rutherford's experiment.
