What colors does starch turn if there is a little amount present?
starch will not change its own colour but it can change the colour of iodine solution. iodine solution is originally brown. after adding starch, it will turn into dark blue.

Add a drop of iodine to both a distilled water test tube and to the test tube containing the starch solution in the test tube What do you observe?
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
Which liquid can easily dissolve the green colour from the leaf?
iodine solution
What is the theoretical achromatic point of salivary amylase?
If we add salivary amylase to any solution ( eg:iodine solution) the colour of solution changes to blue.THE TIME TAKEN BY THE SALIVARY AMYLASE TO CHANGE ITS(iodine solution) COLOUR TO BLUE IS CALLED ACROMATIC POINT OF SALIVARY AMYLASE. ie, the time upto which the solution is colourless and after that it gains blue colour.
What color gives if starch reacts with iodine?
When iodine reacts with starch, the solution will turn a brownish colour.
Why does starch turn blue with iodine?
the iodine does not turn the starch black."The iodine clock reaction is based around the colour change that occurs when iodine reacts with starch, turning from a clear colour to a black-blue colour." (2) The starch allows the iodine and the iodide ions to bond, forming a triodide ion.I2(aq) + I−(aq) ⇌ I3−(aq)In this reaction, iodide is viewed as a base, and iodine is viewed as an acid.The iodine is a ligand and is surrounded by the starch,as for the colour change, that is due to the iodine absorbing all light wavelengths corresponding to colours, hence not letting any through, so what you are seeing when the solution is black, is the absence of light and colour alltogether,hope that helps
