When you mix tapioca flour and water together, the product has a quicksand-like property. Hard if you are to punch it, but liquid-like when you slowly put the tip of your fingers in.
starch is insoluble whereas glucose is soluble
Starch is more soluble in water than in sugar. Starch molecules can absorb water and swell, forming a colloidal suspension in water. On the other hand, sugar dissolves readily in water to form a homogeneous solution.
Firstly what the end products of the starch converting to glucose are soluble. Starch is converted to alpha glucose monomers by the addition of water to the glycosidic bonds which join the glucose molecules together. This addition of water is a hydrolysis reaction and seperates the glucose molocules form the starch polymer. The enzyme amalayse is responsible for catalysing the break down of starch into SOLUBLE glucose molecules (monomers).
Ag2CrO4 is insoluble in water.
No, fluorite is not water soluble. It is a mineral that is typically insoluble in water.

What? It IS soluble in water.
Tapioca starch has similar properties to corn starch. The amylose content of tapioca starch is about the same as corn starch but there are some phosphate groups present in tapioca which I think affect the solubility of starches in water.
