This is because starch is composed of polymers of glucose. Long linear chains are amylose. Amylopectin is similar but contains a branch point about every 25th glucose or so. Amylose coils into a helical secondary structure resembling a tube with a hollow core. Certain molecules including fatty acids and iodine can lodge inside the core as already mentioned. The complex of iodine stuck inside the amylose coil produces a characteristic blue-black colour. The starch itself is not altered. Starch-iodine complex becomes unstable at temperatures above 35 °C. This complex in presence of an oxidizing agent the solution turns blue, in the presence of reducing agent, the blue color disappears because triiodide (I3−) ions break up into three iodide ions, disassembling the complex. So starch turns into glucose molecules. Therefore the blue black colour disappears. However, when it cools down again, then the glucose macromolecules bonded up together again in a long chain, becoming starch. That is why it tested positive for starch and turns back into blue-black colour.
When starch and iodine are mixed, the color becomes deep blue due to the amylose content in starch. When heat is applied, the association of amylose and iodine is disrupted, thus loses its color.
glucose reduces the copper (ii) ions Cu2+ in benedicts reagent to Copper (i) oxide. yellow-brown(actaully red brown). the color is due to Cu+ in the copper (i) oxide. starch cannot reduce the Copper ions in copper (ii) oxide.
because starch is present in the solution
Probable a complex beta amylose (a compound from starch)-iodine is formed.
chemical reaction
Chemical change would cause change in physical quality or thermal value, the most observable quality is colour. It may observed a colour change of reaction but not all reaction had observable change of colour. In that case it will need to add indicator to observe a chemical change. Type of indicator may be different base on the concerned reaction. Indicator chosen may be the type that change colour due to pH or the type that react with contents of product to change colour.
A solution is not a change; a solution is represented by a solute dissolved in a solvent; but dissolving (without chemical reaction) is a physical process.
There is twice the change in colligative properties in the sodium chloride solution than in the glucose solution.
change in temperature, change in color,
There are many observable characteristics of a chemical reaction. They are: change in temperature formation of a precipitate change in color formation of a gas formation of a new odor disappearance of a solid
The starch indicator solution will diffuse out of the bag (cell) into the beaker, changing the color of the starch solution to a blue, purple, or black color (assuming that it's iodine). The color of the indicator solution inside the bag will not change, because only the glucose can diffuse into the bag, but the starch cannot diffuse into the bag.
You can prove there is glucose in a sample by using Benedict's Solution. Heat up the sample, and add the Benedict's Solution. Assuming the solution is clear, if glucose is present it will change colour to red, or yellow, or green. If not, it will stay clear.

Benedict solution is the chemical indicator for simple sugars.
This chemical reaction is called photosynthesis.

the reaction in which glucose molecules are formed from starch is a Hydrolisis reaction
If there is no chemical reaction occurring in the solution as a result of heating then this scenario constitutes a phase change.
