Alice likely had big brown blotches from iodine because iodine can stain the skin when applied. This staining is a common side effect of using iodine for disinfection or medical procedures, and the brown blotches should fade over time as the skin naturally sheds and regenerates.

How big is Iodine?

varys from 2,342 kilometres to 103,230 kilometres in diameter


What is the name for ICl molecular compound?

ICL3 Is an interhalogenic molekule which is the only one that is not a Fluoride (all other interhalogenic bonds are fluorids). According to VSEPR it has a T-shape that is derived from a Tetraeder. The Chlor Atoms are on "the end" of the T and the Iodine is in the middle. You have a look here http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/VSEPR-Modell CLF3 is isoelectronic to ICL3 As for the usage I only anything, but ICl is used as a fluorine agent.


What is the Lewis dot structure for pentaiodide?

The Lewis dot structure for pentaiodide (I5-) consists of five iodine atoms bonded together in a linear fashion, with one extra electron to form a negative charge on the molecule. Each iodine atom will have seven valence electrons, with three lone pairs and a single bond to the adjacent iodine atom.


What type of particles are present in the iodine crystal?

Say you have a neutral iodine atom: I. It has 53 electrons, as well as 53 protons. To become an ion, it has to gain or lose electrons (in this case, I will gain an electron). I does this rather readily, as it only needs one more electron in order to completely fill the 5p shell. When it acquires this 54 electron, it becomes the iodide ion (I-).


Why was iodine tablets given school children in the early 1950's?

There was an iodine deficiency, and children began to get goiters on their thyroids. Some say because they took the natural minerals out of salt and began to add a lab created salt called magnesium carbonate. This helped the salt pour out of shakers even in high humid weather, hence the Morton slogan "when it rains it pours". Big industry salt says that there was never enough iodine in the salt to prevent goiters anyway. They have since added these vitamins and minerals into the breads that we eat and other foods.
