As part of a science experiment, Jose did a test for starch on a slice of apple and a slice of potato. The yellow-orange iodine

solution stayed the same color when it was put on the apple, but it became black on the potato.

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Iodine solution is used to test for starch.  A positive test for starch gives a blue-black color.

The fact that the color of the apple remained the same is indicative of the fact that starch was not contained in the apple.

A change in the color of potato indicates the presence of starch in the potato.

The fact that iodine did not react with apple should not be taken to mean that apples contain no starch at all. Starch changes gradually to sugar as fruits ripen. This is why the apple gave a negative test for starch.

Silicon is an element that is found directly underneath carbon in the periodic table and thus has similar properties to carbon,
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

            Four electrons are present in the valence shell of Silicon.

Explanation:

                   Valence shell electrons are those electrons which are present in the outermost shell of an atom. These valence shell electrons are responsible for in the formation of bonds with other atoms.

                   Silicon having atomic number 14 has fourteen electrons in its neutral state and has the electronic configuration as follow;

                                              1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p²

In given configuration the valence shell (outermost shell) is 3 and the number of electrons present in it are four i.e. 3s² and 3p² (2 + 2 = 4) respectively.

The ratio of carbon atoms to hydrogen atoms to oxygen atoms in a molecule of dicyclohexyl maleate is 4 to 6 to 1. what is its mo
Semenov [28]
Knowing the ratio between atoms we can write an empirical formula: 

<span>C4H6O </span>

<span>we compute the molar mass of this single formula: </span>
<span>4x12 + 6 x 1 + 16 x1 = 70 g / mol </span>

<span>Now, as we know the actual molar mas being 280 g/mol, we divide this number by 70 and we get the ratio between empirical formula and molecular actual formula: </span>

<span>280 / 70 = 4 </span>

<span>This means that actual molecular formula is: </span>

<span>(C4H6O)4 or </span>

<span>C16H24O4 </span>
