Yes. Cl has a is more electronegative than the iodide ion and thus attracts electrons more strongly than the iodide ion.

This is mainly due to the fact that chlorine has only 3 shells, compared to iodides 4 shells. This means a greater electrostatic attraction force exists between the chlorine nucleus and the outer electron than iodide and its outer electrons. As a result the Chlorine will be reduced to Cl- and iodide will be oxidised to iodine, as it will have lost its electron to the chlorine. 

The equation is 
Cl2 + 2I-  --> 2Cl- + I2

Answer:

Yes, and it would yield gaseous iodine and chloride ions.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, when gaseous iodine reacts with iodide ions, the reaction results:

Cl_2+I^-\rightarrow I_2+Cl^-

In such a way, by balancing the reaction we obtain:

Cl_2+2I^-\rightarrow I_2+2Cl^-

Therefore, gaseous chlorine would be reduced by iodide ions yielding gaseous iodine and chloride ions.

Best regards.

Would you expect an organic compound to be soluble in water why
RSB [31]

Answer: All organic compound depends on  H-bonding with water. more stronger H-bonding with water more will be soluble.

Explanation:

1. It depends primarily upon the function groups of that compound. It also depends on the size of the compound.  

2. some organic compound which soluble in water for example: alcohols, ethers, carboxylic acids.  Because of the functional groups attached to the organic structure (the C-H backbone) are what effect the solubilities.Like carboxylic acids and alcohols form hydrogen bonds with the water, helping to solubilize it.  

3. Take alcohols for example: methanol, ethanol, and isopropanol are all completely soluble in water. By the time you get to butanol and some of the larger alcohols, including those with more complex structures, they tend to be less soluble.
