Answer:
2KI → 2K + I₂
Explanation:
(not my definition, but form a trustworthy source)
The definition of a decomposition reaction is:
a chemical reaction in which one reactant breaks down into two or more products.
In this case, potassium iodide will decompose into potassium and iodine.
2KI → 2K + 2I
2 Potassium and 2 Iodine on both sides, so equation is balanced.
Or, it can be written as 2KI → 2K + I₂
The exact answer is 145000
<span>Actually the main reason being benzaldehyde completely lacks alpha hydrogen within its whole structure and then this alpha hydrogen is the only hydrogen adjacent to the carbon from the carbonyl group, hence it will not undergo a self aldol condensation at all.</span>
For example:
5Cl₂ + I₂ + 12NaOH = 10NaCl + 2NaIO₃ + 6H₂O
Na₂S₂O₃ + 4I₂ + 10NaOH = 8NaI + 2Na₂SO₄ + 5H₂O
