Will starch diffuse across the cellophane membrane?

No because starch is a bigger and a complex compound


Would sugar's starch or salt diffuse faster in a dialysis bag?

When considering a dialysis bag, size will determine whether the molecules will permeate the bag. The smaller the molecules, the easier they well be able to pass through, and the faster diffusion will take place. Starch is a carbohydrate - a macromolecule formed from repeating bonded units of glucose monomers. Salt, in comparison, is simply Na+ and Cl- ions (in the aqueous solution). Starch will have a much tougher time getting through the artificial membrane, so it is a safe bet that salt will diffuse faster.


Gases diffuse most efficiently across what?

Diffusion of gases easily occurs across a membrane. The gases will have to be converted into liquids so as to diffuse easily.


What happens when starch boiled?

Starch is energy for our body, glucose can not be stored so it is stored as starch, but before this starch can be used as energy to our body, it must be turned back into glucose, this is done by amylase, it breaks down the starch back into glucose so it can be used.


What are the characteristics of gaseous exchange surfaces?

Features of gas exchange surfacesHave a large surface area relative to the volume of the organism.They are thin, so have a short diffusion pathway.They have a moist surface where gases can dissolve first before they diffuse in our out.They are able to maintain the diffusion gradient down which the gases can diffuse.

What will happen if you pour starch indicator solution into the cell and filled the beaker with starch and glucose solution?

The starch indicator solution will diffuse out of the bag (cell) into the beaker, changing the color of the starch solution to a blue, purple, or black color (assuming that it's iodine). The color of the indicator solution inside the bag will not change, because only the glucose can diffuse into the bag, but the starch cannot diffuse into the bag.


Can Iodine Potassium Iodine when mixed with a starch diffuse through a semipermeable membrane?

yes

Why don't starch molecules pass through partially permeable membranes?

Albumin and starch molecules are too big to diffuse across cell membranes. They will not be able to diffuse from the intestine into the blood and from blood into the cells.


In what direction do particles natural diffuse?

Down concentration gradients.

How does iodine get in a bag of corn starch?

I am not quite sure what happens when corn starch and iodine are mixed but when corn starch, iodine and water are mixed, it creates a purple solution. The darkness of the colour mostly depends on the iodine. Without the starch with iodine and water, it is deep yellow or brown.

Which gas will diffuse faster between bromine and chlorine and why?

Bromine is a liquid, so chlorine, as a gas, will diffuse faster.
