no its not, the iodide ion is
Because it contains Iodine in its lower oxidation state of -1
This reducing agent.
it is a reducing agent
Direct reaction of hydrocarbon with iodine is reversible because of formation HI which is reducing agent. Hence the reaction must be carried in the presence of oxidization agent like HNO3 to nutralize the HI formed.
it is both oxidizing as well as reducing agent
Fluorine is the strongest reducing agent.
Because it contains Iodine in its lower oxidation state of -1
KI is potassium iodide, you'd react it with something to produce iodine ions. It reacts as reducing agent
This reducing agent.

Reducing
When an analyte that is a reducing agent is titrated directly with a standard iodine solution, the method is called "iodimetry". When an analyte that is an oxidizing agent is added to excess iodide to produce iodine, and the iodine produced is determined by titration with sodium thiosulfate, the method is called "iodometry".
Hypo is a reducing agent when combined with Na.
it is both oxidizing as well as reducing agent
A substance that is good at reducing another atom
sodium hydroxide is a reducing agent and is a strongly alkaline caustic used in manufacturing soap.
