Starch is not included in the bag because it is used as a thickening agent in the soup and would not have the same texture or flavor profile if it was included in the bag before cooking.
The starch solution diffuses out of the bag during osmosis.
The IKI Is small so the pores of in the bag allow it to go throuch but the starch is to big. So based on the size of the molecules, the glucose and IKI would move out of the bag, the water in, and the starch left in the beaker.
Solutions tend to move from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration. So if a bag is permeable to starch, the starch will rush into the bag.
You can determine if iodine entered the dialysis bag containing starch by performing a simple iodine test. Add a few drops of iodine solution to the bag. If the iodine turns blue or purple, it means that iodine has entered the bag and reacted with the starch inside.
At the end of the experiment, the starch solution in the dialysis bag remains unchanged in terms of its concentration, as starch molecules are too large to pass through the dialysis membrane. However, if iodine was present in the surrounding solution, it may have entered the bag and reacted with the starch, resulting in a color change. This indicates that while small molecules can diffuse through the membrane, the larger starch molecules cannot. Thus, the starch solution inside the bag retains its original properties.

If iodine is placed in a dialysis bag, it will diffuse out of the bag into the surrounding solution, assuming the solution does not contain iodine. This is because the dialysis bag is typically permeable to small molecules like iodine, allowing it to move from an area of higher concentration (inside the bag) to lower concentration (outside). If the surrounding solution contains starch, a color change to blue-black will occur, indicating the presence of iodine, as iodine forms a complex with starch. If there is no starch, the iodine will simply diffuse into the solution without any observable reaction.
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.
Iodine is permeable to a plastic bag because the starch's molecules are too large to pass through the bag (starch is a complex sugar made of a large chain of monosaccharides), while the Iodine can pass through since iodine is usually only two Iodine atoms (I2).
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.
Flour and corn starch are measured the same, but the results aren't always the same.
