The question is incomplete, the complete question is;
When determining the amount of an oxidant present by titration, you can use iodine and starch as an indicator.
First, the oxidant, like hypochlorite, oxidizes
Choose...
neutral iodine into iodide ion
iodide ion into neutral iodine
iodate polyatomic ion into iodide ion
When starch and iodine are both present, the solution is

blue-black
brownish yellow
clear
During the titration, the titrant, like thiosulfate, reduces the
Choose...
iodide ion into iodate polyatomic ion
neutral iodine into iodide ion
iodide ion into neutral iodine
When the iodine has completely reacted at the endpoint of the titration, the solution should become
Choose...
clear
blue-black
brownish yellow
Answer:
1. iodide ion into neutral iodine
2. blue-black
3. neutral iodine into iodide ion
4. clear
Explanation:
Hypochlorite oxidizes the iodide ion to iodine molecule according to the reaction equation;
ClO-(aq) + 2H+(aq) + 2I-(aq) ---------> 6 I2(l) + Cl- (aq)+ H2O(l)
When iodine is added, the colour of the starch solution immediately changes to blue-black.
A reduction reaction occurs when the titrant, thiosulfate is added as follows;
I2 + 2S2O32- → 2I- + S4O62-
The solution at end point is found to become clear again.
