Answer:
Starch testing
Iodine solution is used to test leaves for the presence of starch. You need to:
heat a plant leaf in boiling water for 30 seconds (this stops its chemical reactions)
heat it in boiling ethanol for a few minutes (this removes most of its colour)
wash with water and spread onto a white tile
add iodine solution from a dropping pipette
After a few minutes, the parts of the leaf that contain starch turn blue-black.
Note that ethanol is heated using a hot water bath. Ethanol boils at 78°C, so a tube of it boils when placed in a beaker of hot water. This is safer than using a Bunsen burner because ethanol is flammable.
