Explanation:

When potassium iodide ($KI$) reacts with chlorine ($Cl_2$), chlorine displaces iodine from potassium iodide. Iodine in solution gives a purple - brown color. Initially, the potassium iodide solution is usually clear. As iodine is formed during the reaction, the solution turns from clear to purple.
