Question
What is the difference between glucose and starch?
✓
Answer
(i) Glucose does not react with iodine solution whereas starch gives blue colour with iodine solution.
(ii) Glucose does not undergo hydrolysis whereas hydrolysis of starch gives glucose.
(iii) Glucose gives red precipitate with Fehling's solution but starch does not give this test.

The decomposition of dimethyl ether leads to the formation of CH4, H2 and CO and the reaction rate is given by
Rate $= k \left[ CH _3 OCH _3\right]^{3 / 2}$
The rate of reaction is followed by increase in pressure in a closed vessel, so the rate can also be expressed in terms of the partial pressure of dimethyl ether, i.e.,
Rate $= k \left( p _{ CH _3 OCH _3}\right)^{3 / 2}$
If the pressure is measured in bar and time in minutes, then what are the units of rate and rate constants?
