Hydrogen iodide is not produced by the same method is for hydrogen chloride why with reaction

Masja [62]

Using Phosphoric acid will work perfectly for producing Hydrogen halides because its not an Oxidizing agent. ...

Using an ionic chloride and Phosphoric acid

H3PO4 + NaCl ==> HCl + NaH2PO4

H3PO4 + NaI ==> HI + NaH2PO4

H2SO4 + NaCl ==> HCl + NaHSO4

This method(Using H2So4) will work for all hydrogen hydrogen halide except Hydrogen Iodide and Hydrogen Bromide.

The Sulphuric acid won't be useful for producing Hydrogen Iodide because its an OXIDIZING AGENT. Whist producing the Hydrogen Iodide... Some of the Iodide ions are oxidized to Iodine.
