Why do green leaves turn blue black when iodine is added?
because the leaves have photosynthesized- glucose is produced. therefore, the excess glucose is converted to starch. The starch is then stored in the leaf-starch is what causes the "green" leaf to turn blue black, as iodine turns blue-black when it reacts with starch.:P

What colour does the leaf turn once iodine is added and is no starch?
When iodine is added to a leaf with no starch, the leaf will remain its original color (usually green). Iodine reacts with starch molecules, turning the leaf blue-black if starch is present.

I did this lab experiment in my biology class. When Lugol's indicator is added to glucose, it turns to a dark green colour for starch it turns black and for surcose it turns yellow.
Why it is useful to remove the green colour from the leaf before testing iodine solution?
Removing the green color from the leaf before testing iodine solution allows for a clearer observation of the starch present in the leaf. The green color of chlorophyll can mask the color change that indicates the presence of starch when iodine solution is added. By removing the green color, it is easier to identify and analyze the starch content in the leaf.
Why leaf change color when starch is added?
When starch is added to leaves, it disrupts the natural pigments responsible for leaf coloration, particularly chlorophyll, which gives leaves their green color. This interference can cause the leaves to lose their green color and change to a different color, depending on other remaining pigments present in the leaf.
Why a yellow leaf doesn't change it's colour by putting iodine on it?
Because it doesn't contain green pigment, chloroplast... Green leaves changes to blue-black due to present of starch in chloroplast.
