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.

What is the ratio of lactic acid (Ka = 1.37x^10-4) to lactate in a solution with pH =4.29
hram777 [196]

Henderson–Hasselbalch equation is given as,

                                         pH  =  pKa  +  log [A⁻] / [HA]   -------- (1)

Solution:

Convert Ka into pKa,

                                         pKa  =  -log Ka

                                         pKa  =  -log 1.37 × 10⁻⁴

                                         pKa  =  3.863

Putting value of pKa and pH in eq.1,

                                         4.29  =  3.863 + log [lactate] / [lactic acid]

Or,

                   log [lactate] / [lactic acid]  =  4.29 - 3.863

                   log [lactate] / [lactic acid]  =  0.427

Taking Anti log,

                             [lactate] / [lactic acid]  =  2.673

Result:

           2.673 M  lactate salt when mixed with 1 M Lactic acid produces a buffer of pH = 4.29.

How many moles are present in 3.4 x 1023 atoms of Na?
Andrej [43]
<h3><u>moles of H2SO4</u></h3>

Avogadro's number (6.022 × 1023) is defined as the number of atoms, molecules, or "units of anything" that are in a mole of that thing. So to find the number of moles in 3.4 x 1023 molecules of H2SO4, divide by 6.022 × 1023 molecules/mole and you get 0.5646 moles but there are only 2 sig figs in the given so we need to round to 2 sig figs. There are 0.56 moles in 3.4 x 1023 molecules of H2SO4

Note the way this works is to make sure the units are going to give us moles. To check, we do division of the units just like we were dividing two fractions:

(molecules of H2SO4) = (molecules of H2SO4)/1 and so we have 3.4 x 1023/6.022 × 1023 [(molecules of H2SO4)/1]/[(molecules of H2SO4)/(moles of H2SO4)]. Now, invert the denominator and multiply:
