The balanced chemical reaction is:
<span>2 I2 + KIO3 + 6 HCl ---------> 5 ICl + KCl + 3 H2O
</span>
We are given the amount of the product to be produced from the reaction. This will be the starting point of our calculations.
28.6 g ICl (1 mol / 162.35 g ICl ) ( 2 mol I2 / 5 mol ICl ) ( 253.81 g I2 / 1 mol I2 ) = 17.88 g I2
It is a solid in its natural state but it can be a liquid
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
Answer:
Lonic.an electron will be transferred from potassium to the chlorine atom
We found cesium, strontium, aluminum, sulfur, chlorine, and fluorine on the periodic table. Cesium is the farthest left and the lowest, while fluorine is the farthest right and the highest, so we know they have the highest metallic character and the lowest metallic character, respectively.
