I performed an experiment and mixed copper nitrate and potassium iodide. When they reacted, they formed a precipitate, even thou
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

2Cu2^+ + 2I^- ----> 2Cu^+ + I2

Explanation:

The reaction performed in the experiment is;

2 Cu(NO3)2 + 4 KI → 2 CuI (s) + 4 KNO3 + I2

The iodide ions reduces Cu^2+ to Cu^+ which is insoluble in water hence the precipitate. This is so because iodine is a good oxidizing agent seeing that it requires one electron to fill its outermost shell. Potassium on the other hand is a good reducing agent since it easily looses its one electron.

The oxidation - reduction equation is as follows;

2Cu2^+ + 2e ----> 2Cu^+ reduction half equation

2I^- ----> I2 + 2e. Oxidation half equation

Balanced redox reaction equation;

2Cu2^+ + 2I^- ----> 2Cu^+ + I2
