Which indicator would you use to test starches?
weee
What would happen if there was no starch in the redox titration?
If you are looking at a iodide to iodine redox titration, the solution would turn yellow instead of blue/black. The blue/black color of the iodine-starch complex is very intense and so the end-point is sharper. Without the starch, the endpoint, when the first yellow from the formation of iodine I2, appears, is less sharp and is harder to see.
If starch is heated with sulfuric acid for about 2 hours what would the expected result be for a test with iodine on this heated starch solution?
Yellowish brown
Why is starch solution used as indicator in Sodium thiosulphate Iodine titrations instead of phenolphthalein indicator?
Phenolphthalein is an acid base indicator - it does not show the end-point in a thiosulfate type titration. Starch gives a very sharp end-point from a blue-black to colorless end-point when titrating iodine with thiosulfate. Phenolphthalein would just not detect this change.
What color will be if mixing iodine with hexane?
The color would be a yellowish-orange.
What color would you see if iodine solution is added to starch?
A deep blue colour

Why did each of the solutions turn iodine blueblack at the start of the experiments?
Iodine is famous for testing of the presence of starch. I would assume starch is present in the solution, therefore iodine would turn blue. Originally, the colour of iodine solution is brown.
Why do you need to add iodine solution to a specimen?
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.
If iodine were not available how would you determine whether starch hydrolysis occurred?
A dye would be needed if iodine were not available. The ingredients can also be scientifically measured to tell whether or not hydrolysis had occurred.
What regent would you add to starch agar plate to detect starch hydrolsis?
To detect starch hydrolysis on a starch agar plate, you can add iodine solution. Iodine reacts with starch to form a blue-black color, and if starch is hydrolyzed by the organism, the clear zone around the bacterial growth will indicate the presence of amylase, an enzyme that breaks down starch.
What is the function of iodine?
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.
A student adds iodine solution to egg white and waits for a color change How long will the student have to wait for a change?
A student adds iodine solution to egg white and waits for a color change. How long will the student wait?
Why would a negative iodine test for starch indicate a positive result for the enzymatic degradation of starch by amylase?
Perhaps the iodine solution was old and gave a false negative.
