When iodine is added to cornstarch, a blue-black complex is formed. This is utilized as a simple test to detect the presence of starch in a given substance.
Mixing iodine with cornstarch does not result in a chemical reaction. Instead, it forms a physical mixture in which the iodine molecules become trapped within the starch molecules, causing the mixture to change color. The iodine acts as an indicator of the presence of starch.
One way to test if a powder is talc or cornstarch is by performing a iodine test. Mix the powder with iodine solution; if the mixture turns blue-black, it is likely cornstarch. Another way is to do a simple solubility test: dissolve the powder in water and if it is talc, it will not dissolve and settle to the bottom, while cornstarch will dissolve.
When iodine is added to bread, it reacts with the starch present in the bread. This reaction causes the iodine to turn a blue-black color, allowing for the detection of starch. This can be used as a test to check if the bread contains starch as an ingredient.
iodine is soluble in CHCl3. Liquid become purple in color.
When iodine is added to water, it forms a solution where the iodine molecules dissociate, producing a characteristic brown color. This color is due to the interaction of iodine molecules with water molecules.
Blue or Purple
It turns black!
Crisps are made from potatoes which are very high in starch. When iodine is added to starch it forms a complex with it and results in a purplish color. you get the same thing if you put an iodine sol'n on bread or cornstarch.
Iodine is used to test for starch; when the two are combined a deep bluish-black color is produced. This is a result of the intensely colored I3- ion forming inside the helices of the amylose regions in the starch.
the mixture turns black
If you mean to test for starch then Iodine
ok, the rice will turn black when you put with iodine. It just like burning, but it is faster then fire!
The colour of the iodine will turn from yellowish brown to dark blue

it will change into blue black colours.
No, I don't think so.
