Question
What is the purpose for including starch in the sodium thiosulfate solution?
It stabilizes the thiosulfate to keep it from oxidizing when exposed to air.
It acts as a catalyst to increase the reaction rate so the experiments can be
completed in the lab period.
The dark blue colour of the starch complex disappears and the solution becomes
colourless when the reaction has reached its endpoint.
It forms a blue complex with the triiodide ion when all of the thiosulfate has
reacted.
