The separation of iodine and alcohol can be achieved through a process known as distillation. In this process, the mixture is heated to separate the components based on their boiling points. Iodine has a higher boiling point than alcohol, so it will remain in the distillation flask while alcohol will vaporize and can be collected in a separate container.
No, iodine and alcohol do not form a solution. Iodine is not soluble in alcohol, but it can be dissolved in solutions like water or other polar solvents.
When iodine dissolves in alcohol, it is a physical change because no new substances are formed. The iodine molecules are simply dispersed in the alcohol solution, but the chemical properties of iodine and alcohol remain the same.
When iodine (I2) is mixed with alcohol, it forms a solution known as tincture of iodine. This solution is commonly used as an antiseptic to disinfect wounds due to the antimicrobial properties of iodine. The alcohol helps dissolve the iodine, making it easier to apply to the skin.
Iodine and methyl alcohol can be separated by fractional distillation, as they have different boiling points. Methyl alcohol has a lower boiling point than iodine, so it will vaporize first and can be collected separately.
The solute in antiseptic iodine is typically iodine itself, which is a chemical element. Iodine is dissolved in a solvent, such as alcohol or water, to create an antiseptic solution for disinfecting wounds and skin.
When iodine is dissolved in alcohol, it forms a mixture of iodine and alcohol, which is physical.
When iodine is dissolved in alcohol, the resulting mixture is known as tincture of iodine.
In this case, solid iodine is the solute and alcohol is the solvent. This is because the solid iodine is being dissolved in the alcohol to form a homogeneous solution, with alcohol being the predominant component.
No, alcohol (or more technically ethanol) is a compound of hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen
The liquid that does the dissolving is the solvent. That is alcohol in this example.The solid that dissolves is the solute. That is iodine in this example.
Tincture of iodine contains iodine and alcohol

You can boil away the alcohol, and the iodine will be left behind as a solid residue.
