Potassium Iodide is used as a test for oxidising agent. When mixed with the oxidising agent it will turn brown.Example: Fluorine
Iodide is yellow in colour.

What colour is the precipitate formed when sodium hydroxide reacts with potassium iodide?
They are not soluble, therefore they do not precipitate or form a color....a.k.a....no reaction...
What is the color of the flame of potassium iodide?
White
What happens when chlorine gas is added to potassium iodide solution?
When chlorine gas is bubbled into an aqueous solution of potassium iodide, some of the iodide ions are oxidized to iodine. The iodine molecules combine with iodide ions to form brown triiodide ion, I3-. In this demonstration, the aqueous solution is above a layer of carbon tetrachloride, in which iodine is quite soluble. The beautiful violet color of iodine can be seen as the iodine dissolves in the carbon tetrachloride layer. With excess chlorine, iodine reacts to form iodine monochloride, ICl, which is ruby red. The iodine monochloride reacts further to form iodine trichloride, ICl3, which is much lighter in color, causing the solution to be decolorized.
Potassium iodide color?
I think it's white.
What color flame is produced when potassium metal reacts with water?
Potassium produces a lilac flame

What is the colour of the endpoint for sodium hypochlocrite and potassium iodide?
The endpoint color of sodium hypochlocrite and potassium iodide is not listed.

What color is Lugol's solution prior to changing color?
Lugol's solution is a solution of iodine (1-5%) and potassium iodide in water. So the solution should have the pale color of iodine and the color should be pale (light) brown.
What color does starch change to in the presence of potassium iodide and sodium hyphoclorite?
The color become intense blue.
Which metal reacts with water and burns with a lilac flame?
Potassium has a violet color in the flame test.
What color flame is produced when potassium metal reacts with water?
Potassium produces a lilac flame
Why isn't starch present when colour is light brown?
The Iodine test uses Iodine solution, which is usually a brown colour. It is used to test for the presence of Starch. Iodine solution, iodine dissolved in an aqueous solution of potassium iodide, reacts with starch producing a blue black color. If the sample being tested doesn't turn blue-black, then starch isn't present.
What color flame test does the iodide solution give in flame test?
It is not the anions (e.g. iodide) that are responsible for the flame test color, rather the cations such as sodium ion, potassium ion and calcium ion give you different colors.
When potassium iodine is placed in lead nitrate what is the color of the residue?
Yellow; the insoluble precipitate Lead(II) iodide is created
