KI
The compound name of potassium and iodine is potassium iodide.
KI is an ionic compound composed of a metal (potassium) and a non-metal (iodine). It forms an ionic bond where potassium donates an electron to iodine, resulting in the formation of K+ cation and I- anion.
The molecular weight of I2KI (iodine monochloride potassium iodide) can be calculated by adding the atomic weights of its constituent elements: iodine (I) has an atomic weight of approximately 126.9 g/mol, and potassium (K) has an atomic weight of about 39.1 g/mol. In I2KI, there are two iodine atoms and one potassium atom, so the calculation is: (2 × 126.9) + 39.1 = 292.9 g/mol. Therefore, the molecular weight of I2KI is approximately 292.9 g/mol.
The word equation for the reaction between potassium and iodine is: potassium + iodine → potassium iodide.
I2
Yes. "Potassium Iodine" tablets is a colloquial - and incorrect - way of saying "Potassium Iodide" tablets.
I2 is called as molecular iodine
Potassium and Iodine
The word equation for potassium bromide and iodine water is: potassium bromide + iodine water -> potassium iodide + bromine.
Iodine's chemical symbol is I and its full name is iodine. Potassium's chemical symbol is K and its full name is potassium.
Potassium iodide is two atoms, one of potassium and one of iodine.
K is potassium and I is Iodine. K is potassium and I is Iodine
