- 24. water and iodine starch and glucose solutions A piece of dialysis (‘Visking’) tubing is knotted at one end water and iodine and filled with a 2 % starch solution mixed with a 10% glucose solution. The tube is immersed in.a test-tube of water to which iodine has been added. (a ) Predict what you will see after 30 minutes (i) in the starch and glucose solutions dialysis tube, (ii) in the test-tube, (iii) when you boil the liquid from the test-tube with Benedict's solution. (b) Give an explanation of these results.
