Is potassium iodide the same as iodine?

Differences between lugols iodine and grams iodine?

Lugol's Iodine = 20g Potassium Iodide + 10g Iodine dissolved in 1L H2O Gram's Iodine = 6.7g potassium iodide + 3.3g Iodine dissolved in 1L H2O Recipe's taken from Flinn Scientific Catalog I have on campus. Looks to me as Gram's is just a dilute version of Lugol's. Same ratio of KI:I just less of it. Couldn't tell you much about differences in application however.


Preparation of 0.1n iodine solution?

According to Kodak: For a 0.1 Normal (0.1N) solution of iodine (I2), in 1 L volume flask, dissolve 40 g potassium iodide in 25 mL water. Next, add 12.7 g iodine (I2) and dilute to 1 L. Note that a 0.1N solution is not the same as a 0.1M solution. For iodine 0.1N is 0.05M.


What is the chemical equation of chlorine reacts with a sodium iodide?

No reaction occurs girlsnotgrey: If you look at the periodic table for the the halogens the F, Cl, Br, I Chloride is higher up on the periodic table then Iodine. Meaning that Chlorine is more reactive then Iodine. so when Iodine is mixed with sodium chloride, Chloride will stay with sodium and there will be no reaction. NaCl(aq)+I(aq)= NaCl(aq) +I(aq) as you can see there is no reaction so you just write no reaction.
