Why is the formula for mercury 1 iodide hg2l2 and not hgl?

The formula for mercury(I) iodide is Hg₂I₂, not HgI. This is because mercury(I) exists as a dimer (Hg₂²⁺) in which two mercury atoms share a pair of electrons, leading to the formation of the Hg₂²⁺ ion. Consequently, two iodide ions (I⁻) are needed to balance the charge, resulting in the formula Hg₂I₂. In contrast, mercury(II) iodide, where mercury has a +2 oxidation state, is correctly represented as HgI₂.

Is there a new substance formed when mercury and iodine are ground together?

When Mercury and Iodine are ground together, a compound called Mercury(I) Iodide is formed with the chemical formula Hg2I2 but this compound is sensitive to light and will break down into elemental Mercury and Mercury(II) Iodide with the chemical formula HgI2 .Interestingly, Mercury(II) Iodide changes color with changes in temperature, changing from orange at room temperature to yellow above 126 degrees Celsius due to a change in crystal structure.
