Correct option is A

Chlorine turns moist starch iodide paper blue-black because the iodide ions on the paper are oxidised to iodine and the starch react to it to give blue-black compound.The bromine releases iodine from the potassium iodide. Iodine reacts with starch to produce a blue color.Br2​+2KI → 2KBr+I2​
