To this a solution containing potassium iodide, sodium thiosulfate, and starch is added. There are two reactions occurring simultaneously in the solution. In the first, slow reaction, iodine is produced: H 2 O 2 + 2 I − + 2 H + → I 2 + 2 H 2 O. In the second, fast reaction, iodine is reconverted to two iodide ions by the thiosulfate:
A bottle of iodine solution used on apples to determine the correct harvest time. The chart shows the level of residual starch. The cut surface of an apple stained with iodine, indicating a starch level of 4–5. The iodine–starch test is a chemical reaction that is used to test for the presence of starch or for iodine. The combination of ...
The iodometric titration is a general method to determine the concentration of an oxidising agent in solution. In an iodometric titration, a starch solution is used as an indicator since it can absorb the I 2 that is released, visually indicating a positive iodine-starch test with a deep blue hue. This absorption will cause the solution to ...
This experiment is about much more than just watching Iodine solution turn royal blue from reddish brown. Try this experiment at home with the kids to introduce them to the basic tenet of physics ...

The Old Nassau reaction or Halloween reaction is a chemical clock reaction in which a clear solution turns orange and then black. This reaction was discovered by two undergraduate students at Princeton University researching the inhibition of the iodine clock reaction (or Landolt reaction) by Hg 2+, resulting in the formation of orange HgI 2.
A redox titration [1] is a type of titration based on a redox reaction between the analyte and titrant. It may involve the use of a redox indicator and/or a potentiometer. A common example of a redox titration is the treatment of a solution of iodine with a reducing agent to produce iodide using a starch indicator to help detect the endpoint.
Such a triglyceride has a high iodine value (approx. 119). Below, the reaction product after the addition of four equivalents of iodine or bromine to the four C=C double bonds of the unsaturated fatty acid residues. The determination of iodine value is a particular example of iodometry. A solution of iodine I 2 is yellow/brown in
