Why hydrogen iodide is a reducing agent?

Hydrogen iodide (HI) is a reducing agent because iodine has a higher electronegativity than hydrogen, which makes it easier for iodine to accept electrons and be reduced. In a chemical reaction, hydrogen iodide donates electrons to another species while itself gets oxidized, making it a reducing agent.


Is ethyl iodide polar?

Yes, ethyl iodide is polar. The molecule has a slight positive charge on the carbon atom due to the iodine's higher electronegativity, leading to an uneven distribution of electrons and creating a polar molecule.
