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.

A chemist heats a fixed amount of gas in a sealed glass container. Which law is the chemist most likely investigating?
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

The law which this chemist is most likely investigating heating a fixed amount of gas in a sealed glass container is: Gay Lussac’s law.

Gay Lussac's law states that when the volume of an ideal amount of gas is held (kept) constant, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the absolute (Kelvin) temperature of the gas.

Mathematically, Gay Lussac's law is calculated by using the formula;

PT = K\\\\\frac{P_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2}{T_2}

<u>Where:</u>

  • P_1 is the original pressure.
  • P_2 is the final pressure.
  • T_1 is the original temperature.
  • T_2 is the final temperature.

In conclusion, the chemist is most likely investigating how changes in temperature affect the pressure of the gas by heating a fixed amount in a sealed glass container in accordance with Gay Lussac's law.

A student performs the following experiment.
dybincka [34]

Answer:

Two different changes have occurred in the beaker. The description of the step 1 suggests that most likely a <u>chemical change</u> has occured while the description of the step 2 correspond to a<u> physical change</u>.

Explanation:

When the mixture of two liquid colorless substances results in the appearance of solid particles you first thing in the appareance of a new substance. If this is the case, it means that the original substances reacted chemically to form a new product, so this is a chemical change.

On the other hand, the second step describes just a physical change as it has been just that the yellow particles settled and then a physical separation by <em>decantation</em>. Decantation does not change the chemical properties of the particles settled, they are jsut separeated from the liquid. During this step both the yellow particles and the liquid in the beaker keep their chemical properties, so this is just a physical change.
