This phenomena depends upon the what is tested. iodine test usually gives a positive result of blue color for starch. The blue color is caused by the trapping of the iodine inside the structure of the starch (note that starch is a polyssacharide that has a helical structure). It is only with starch that this happens cause starch has the only one with a helical structure.
Now your question is why is it that the color disappears when heated, right?
This is because the heat causes an unwinding of the helical structure of starch releasing the trapped iodine making the solution colorless. However, if cooled, with no heat present, the starch structure becomes helical once more trapping the iodine returning the blue colored solution.
this is just what i learned from my Biochemistry class, hope it helps!!
The product of the reaction between starch and iodine is a blue-black complex known as iodine-starch complex. This complex forms due to the iodine molecules inserting themselves into the helical structure of starch, creating this distinctive color change.
The colour of the iodine will turn from yellowish brown to dark blue
the iodine does not turn the starch black."The iodine clock reaction is based around the colour change that occurs when iodine reacts with starch, turning from a clear colour to a black-blue colour." (2) The starch allows the iodine and the iodide ions to bond, forming a triodide ion.I2(aq) + I−(aq) ⇌ I3−(aq)In this reaction, iodide is viewed as a base, and iodine is viewed as an acid.The iodine is a ligand and is surrounded by the starch,as for the colour change, that is due to the iodine absorbing all light wavelengths corresponding to colours, hence not letting any through, so what you are seeing when the solution is black, is the absence of light and colour alltogether,hope that helps
it is a yellowish/orange colour but when iodine is present, than it will turn an dark-blue/black colour
Iodine reacts with starch molecules present in food, forming a bluish-black complex called starch-iodine. This color change is often used as a test to detect the presence of starch in a substance.
starch will not change its own colour but it can change the colour of iodine solution. iodine solution is originally brown. after adding starch, it will turn into dark blue.
it does not turn blue when mixed with iodine. I don't think there is a colour change.
The color not change.
It change from orange/brown colour to blue/black if starch is present
The colour for a plant cell's starch grains is typically blue or black when stained with iodine solution. This is due to the formation of a complex between iodine and starch, which results in the characteristic colour change.
No, iodine solution will not change color when tested on a slice of bread. Iodine solution reacts with starch, turning it blue-black. Bread does not contain starch in high enough amounts to produce a noticeable color change.
The product of the reaction between starch and iodine is a blue-black complex known as iodine-starch complex. This complex forms due to the iodine molecules inserting themselves into the helical structure of starch, creating this distinctive color change.
Iodine forms a complex with starch molecules when they are present together. This complex results in a change in the electronic structure of iodine, causing it to absorb light differently and exhibit a blue-black color, contrasting with its original brown hue.

Iodine
When iodine reacts with starch, it forms a complex known as the starch-iodine complex. This complex results in a deep blue or purple color, which is easily visible. The color change occurs due to the way iodine molecules interact and bond with the long chains of glucose molecules in the starch structure.
The color of iodine in the bottle is typically purple or brown.
