To prepare 1% starch indicator weigh 1g of starch powder.Measure 100ml of water and keep it for heating.by using some of 100ml water taken,make a paste of starch in watchglass and mix this paste with little and continuous strring of water which is kept for heating.when all the paste is added,allow for heating 5more minutes then starch indicator is ready for titration.Note:no lumps of starch should present in water

Why do you need freshly prepared starch solution for iodometric titration?

because,starch undergoes a photochemical reaction. So, with the passage of time it can under go to the photochemical reaction and starch wouldnot be starch but it might have changed in anyother product. so...we should use freshly prepared starch.


How do you overcome the disadvantages of starch indicator?

All the alpha amylase molecules should rupture . Boil water and then add to the boiling water required starch. Make sure that the starch is alpha and not beta amylase. Use freshly prepared starch solution for iodometric titrations. --unnikrishnan

Is starch solution transparent?

Yes, starch solution is typically transparent when it is freshly prepared. However, when heated or exposed to certain conditions, it can change to a translucent or opaque appearance due to gelatinization or retrogradation.

What color change does starch indicator solution make in the absence of starch?

Starch indicator solution will remain its original color (usually colorless) in the absence of starch. Without starch present, there will be no color change observed when using starch indicator solution.


Why starch indicator is not added right from the beginning of titration in iodometry?

Starch indicator should not be added at the beginning of an iodometry titration because iodine can form a complex with the starch, resulting in a blue-black color that can obscure the endpoint. It is best to add the starch indicator near the endpoint, when the iodine is almost completely reacted, to help visualize the color change.
