because the leaf doesnot contain starch in it
It change from orange/brown colour to blue/black if starch is present
Glycogen gives a red color with iodine due to the formation of a complex between iodine and the helical structure of glycogen. This complex results in a shift in the absorption spectrum of iodine, leading to the red color observed.
Amylodextrin gives a blue color with iodine because the presence of iodine causes a complex to form between the iodine molecules and the glucose units in amylodextrin. This complex is known as a starch-iodine complex, and it reflects blue light, resulting in the blue color observed.
Iodine
The color of iodine in the bottle is typically purple or brown.
The initial color of an iodine solution is yellow-brown.
Iodine
I stands for iodine. It is placed in group-17.
Adding iodine to distilled water will not result in any observable reaction, as iodine does not react with water. However, adding iodine to the starch solution will turn the solution blue-black, indicating the presence of starch through the formation of a starch-iodine complex.
it is a yellowish/orange colour but when iodine is present, than it will turn an dark-blue/black colour
Iodine gas is a purple or violet color.
An iodine solution is typically dark brown or reddish-brown in color.
