Iodine (iodine-potassium iodide) staining distinguishes starch ( a polysaccharide) from monosaccharides, a disaccharides and other polysaccharides. Therefore, a bluish black color is a positive test for starch, and a yellow-ish brown color ( no color change) is a negative test for starch.

Answer:

Boyle's Law: When the pressure of a gas increases, the volume of the gas will decrease as long as the temperature and amount of gas are constant.

So basically pressure is inversely proportional to Volume, when one increases, the other decreases, vice versa.

Equation: $P_{1} V_{1} = P_{2} V_{2}$

Charles Law: When the temperature of a gas increases, the volume of a gas will also increase if the pressure and amount of gas are constant.

So basically Temperature and volume are directly proportional.

Equation: $\frac{V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{V_{2} }{T_{2} }$

Gay Lussac's Law: When the temperature of a gas increases, the pressure of a gas also increases when volume and the amount of gas remain constant.

Basically, Temperature and Pressure are directly proportional.

Equation: $\frac{P_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{P_{2} }{T_{2} }$
