by a pH paper or pH solution.
The chemical is called Iodine solution. If starch is present, the iodine solution will turn from amber to blue black.
With 2ml of starch solution 2ml of saturated ammonium sulphate solution is added. Formation of gelatinous precipitate gives confirmation of presence of starch
It tests for starch
0.5 to 1 percent starch solution should be used
Starch solution.
Starch is not a solution.

Iodine solution is commonly used to test for starch. If starch is present in a substance (e.g. a leaf which undergone photosynthesis) then the iodien solution would turn blue black. If no starch is present then it remains as light brown.
The starch solution will turn black, while the distilled water will remain brown, the same colour as the iodine. This is actually because water, normally used as a control, does not contain any starch and as we know, the iodine test is highly specific for the presence of starch hence no colour change other than iodine dissolving in water to form an iodine solution contrary to starch which we know complexes with iodine, to form starch-iodine complex forming the blue-black colour observed
