Solution

The correct option is B

Result 2 is correct


Rice is a rich source of starch so if iodine solution is added to rice, it will give blue black color, but if the rice is chewed (addition of saliva) for 3-4 minutes it will not give any color with iodine because saliva breaks starch present in rice into sugars.
