1)If I mixed salt in water I would expect the salt to: 2) If I mixed starch in water I would expect the starch to:

1)If I mixed salt in water I would expect the salt to: dissolve.

2) If I mixed starch in water I would expect the starch to: remain undissolved.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since salt, which is commonly known as sodium chloride (NaCl) is an ionic compound, it is very likely to get dissolved in water, therefore, we would expect the salt to dissolve and form a liquid solution.

Moreover, since start is mainly composed by C-C, C-O and C-H bonds which are nonpolar, it we can say it is usually insoluble in water, therefore we will expect starch to remain undissolved but undergoing a process called gelatinization in which a suspension in formed until a slightly solid consistency.

Best regards.

answer: the rate of diffusion increases with increase in temperature.

increase in temperature, increases the molecular/particles speed (kinetic energy. diffusion means movement of particles through the material.

generally, the heavier the particle the more it interacts with the environment and more the temperature matters. so higher temperature results in higher diffusion.

the answer is a and have a great day
