What is Iodine Solution used for?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have a 20mL bottle, and I was wondering if there is any possible uses for it.

OpenStudy (jadedry):

You can use Iodine to test for starch. If you put a few drops on a potato, you should notice the blue liquid turn brown, detecting the presence of starch. You could also use it to disinfect small surfaces.

OpenStudy (elcna):

It's used for finding starch in substances :)

OpenStudy (jfraser):

just don't drink it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Interesting. How exactly do I use this for disinfecting?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I may answer this for a medal.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (sweetburger):
