Starch, a complex carbohydrate, by far. Iodine is an element. Water is, of course, H2O. Starches are made up of many individual component sugar molecules in long chains. Starches win this size battle hands down.

hi Iodine is an ingredient. So that is purely one atom or a pair of atoms. each and each Iodine atom weighs 126 atomic gadgets so a pair of Iodine atoms would weight 252 atomic gadgets. Water is a molecule of H2O, suited?, so a hydrogen atom weighs a million unit, and an Oxygen atoms weighs sixteen atomic gadgets. So water weighs purely 18 gadgets. Starch is a "polymer" - meaning it is made up of a lineup of smaller products strung at the same time. So, a elementary unit used to thread at the same time to make starch would be glucose sugar. A glucose has C6H12O6 -- in case you upload up the load of all those atoms, then one molecule of glucose would weigh a hundred and eighty gadgets. and because starch is a polymer, you will would desire to have a minimum of two of them (yet incredibly, you will have a great deal of glucose's all in a row) so the least a starch ought to weight would be a minimum of a hundred and eighty + a hundred and eighty = 360 gadgets. So there you bypass!

There is one clear largest molecule in weight, size, and number of constituents in that list. Water is H2O. Iodine is I2. Starches are very large organic molecules, that are many times larger and heavier than water and iodine combined.

Starch is definitly the largest. It is a source of energy and like glucose and other bi-products of glucose it is a big molecule compared to Iodine and water.

I agree with the below answer. Iodine is I2 and you know water is H20. But there are numerous combinations for starches...but they are much more complex.
