Alternative source of energy such as Solar power, nuclear power , hydroelectric power , bio fuels , geothermal power, wind energy etc have potential to provide energy with much lesser pollutant emission , hence improving air quality and reducing greenhouse gas production

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • One of major environmental issue –Air quality having large dependence on atmospheric emission, especially from burning fossil fuel
  • Fossil fuel combustion results numbers of air pollutants, which are harmful to health as well environment. It is one of major reason of global warming.
  • SO₂(Sulphur oxide) and NOx (nitrogen oxides) which are byproducts of fossil fuel combustion when emitted into atmosphere causes smog and acid rain
  • Alternative source of energy produces less pollutant which help in protecting air quality and water quality. It also causes much less damage to public health, global warming , wildlife loss etc comparative to burning fossil fuels

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

The correct answer will be- the color change will be observed and the solution will turn purplish-black.

Explanation:

Iodine test is performed to test the presence of the carbohydrates mainly starch.

The iodine solution is chemically called potassium iodide which forms a yellow solution. The potassium iodide solution forms a complex with a starch solution which appears a purplish-black color which shows the presence of the carbohydrates.

In the given question, if we add the iodine solution to the beaker after a certain point of time then it will still form a complex with the starch and thus beaker solution will appear darker in color.
