The element iodine is a halogen True or false?
No,. The halogens will gain 1 electron when they react if electrons are exchanged.
How many electrons must be gained or lost for Iodine to achieve a noble gas electron configuration?
It must gain one electron to achieve a noble gas electronic structure, just like other halogens.
Which has higher electron affinity Iodine or bromine?
Bromine has a higher electron affinity.
How many electron containing orbitals does iodine have?
36
Chlorine will tend to lose all of its seven outer electron or gain one electron?
It would gain or share an electron - in order to complete the outer shell.
What will be the nature of charge on an atom when it looses an electron or gain an electron?
Aluminum, sulfur, fluorine, phosphorus, iodine, and neon
How many electrons does an iodine atom gain to form a I-anion?
Iodine only needs to gain one electron to become an anion.
When potassium forms a compound with iodine one electron is transferred from the atom to the atom?
Potassium lose an electron (iodine gain this electron) to form potassium iodide, KI.
In iodometric titration how is iodine liberated either by oxidation or reduction?
Ioding when combined in a compound is usually combined as the iodide. Iodide ions are negatively charged (ie each ion has an extra electron compared with an iodine atom). When elemental iodine is liberated, iodine atoms are formed from these ions which in turn pair up to form iodine molecules. When an Iodine ion changes into an atom it must lose the extra electron. From the acronym 'OILRIG' (Oxidation Is Loss of electrons, Reduction Is Gain of electrons) it is clear that as the elemental iodine has formed because of the loss of an electron the process must involve oxidation.
How many electrons does iodine lose or gains when it forms a ion?
Iodine tends to gain one electron when it forms an ion.
How many electrons does iodine gain to achieve noble gas electron configuration?
Iodine gains 1 electron to fill it's shell.
How is a charge made (science)?
By the loss or gain of an electron.
Which atoms that gain or lose an electron?
For example metals loss electrons and nonmetals gain electrons.
What makes iodine reactive?
Iodine is reactive due to its ability to readily gain or lose electrons. It has a strong tendency to accept an electron, making it a good oxidizing agent. Additionally, iodine can form stable compounds with various elements and molecules, which further contributes to its reactivity.
What iodine makes?
Iodine is reactive because it has 7 valence electrons and is unstable. It needs one more electron to get 8, which would give it a noble gas configuration, and which would make the iodine atom stable. Iodine reacts with other elements in order to gain the needed electron and therefore become stable.
The element iodine is a halogen True or false?
No,. The halogens will gain 1 electron when they react if electrons are exchanged.
What is the process of electron gain called?
The process of electron gain is called reduction. For example, if Br gains an electron, its oxidation number is reduced from 0 to -1, and will be written as Br-. The opposite of this (electron loss) would be called oxidation, or ionization.
