Metals and Halogens reactions Elements such as fluorine‚ chlorine‚ bromine‚ iodine‚ and astatine belong to Group 7‚ Halogens. At room temperature‚ fluorine is a yellow gas‚ chlorine is a pale green gas‚ bromine is a red liquid‚ and iodine is a purple solid. Astatine is a radioactive element‚ therefore it exists only in small amounts. All the halogens exist in diatomic molecules. They have high ionization energies and are the most electronegative elements. Their electron configuration ns2 np5 make

I predict that the water level will rise as the iodine stained water moves through the cellulose bag due to osmosis. The iodine is there so we can see this happening. Materials: * Dialysis(cellulose) tubing * Thistle funnel * Gas jar * Retort clamp and stand * Rubber bands * 50mL beaker * Iodine/potassium iodine solution * 5% starch solution Method: 1) Fill the gas jar to 3 quarters full with water. Add iodine solution until the water is quite yellow/brown.

acid‚ reacts with iodine rapidly in an acidic medium. C6H8O6 (aq) + I2 (aq) C6H6O6 (aq) + 2H+(aq) + 2I- (aq) Since iodine dissolves slightly in water‚ ascorbic acid cannot be titrated directly by a standard solution of iodine. Therefore‚ back titration technique is employed in this experiment. In an acidic medium‚ potassium iodate(V) reacts with potassium iodide to produce iodine in situ. KIO3 (aq) + 5KI (aq) + 3H2SO4 (aq) 3I2 (aq) + 3H2O (l) + 3K2SO4 (aq) The iodine produced reacts

IODINE TEST FOR STARCH The Iodine test is used to test for the presence of starch. Iodine solution — iodine dissolved in an aqueous solution of potassium iodide — reacts with the starch producing a purple black color. The colour can be detected visually with concentrations of iodine as low as 0.00002M at 20°C. However the intensity of the colour decreases with increasing temperature and with the presence of water-miscible‚ organic solvents such as ethanol. Also the test cannot be done at very low

with iodine and is oxidised to dehydroascorbic acid rapidly in acidic medium. first Considering iodine is only slightly soluble in water‚ the above titration cannot be performed directly by a standard iodine solution because of the insignificant end point. Thus‚ alternative method‚ back titration‚ will be employed. Two equations are involved. First‚ standard potassium iodate(V) (KIO3)‚ potassium iodate(KI) and dilute sulphuric acis(H2SO4) react to find out the excess quantity of iodine. Below

Ascorbic acid can be analyzed using titration techniques with iodine‚ 2‚4-dinitrophyenylhydarzine‚ a redox indicator‚ or N-Bromosuccinimide (NBS)‚ but caution must be used with temperature because ascorbic acid in the oxidized form‚ dehydroascorbic acid‚ is unstable. Both forms are biologically active‚ but dehydroascorbic
