As the atoms of the iodine react to form molecules of iodine the stability of iodine would do what?

The stability increases because Iodine has 7 valence electrons but when it bonds with another iodine atom it can share an electron (non polar covalent bond) and fill it's highest sub level making it more stable.

How does Iodine react with water?
Iodine naturally occurs in water and cannot be found as an element, but rather as I2 molecules. When it reacts with water, the product is hypoiodite.
If an atom of sulfur were allowed to react with atoms of hydrogen which of the molecules would be formed?
h2s
If eight atoms of iron react completely with six molecules of oxygen how many units of iron oxide will be formed?
four
Do iodine and lithium bromide react?
no
Why glycogen gives red colour with iodine?
When Iodine is added to amylose, the helical shape of the unbranched polysaccharide traps Iodine molecules, producing a deep blue-black complex. Amylopectin, cellulose, and Glycogen react with iodine to give red to brown colors. Glycogen produces a reddish-purple color.
How many moles of iodine are needed to react with 5 moles of potassium to create potassium iodide?
Since molecules of potassium contain only single potassium atoms, molecules of iodine contain two atoms, and moles of potassium iodide contain one atom of each element, 2.5 moles of iodine are needed to react completely with 5 moles of potassium.
Atoms react with other atoms based on?
This depends on the ability to gain/loss electrons.
How many atoms of potassium are needed to react with an atom of iodine?
One to one
How does Iodine react with water?
Iodine naturally occurs in water and cannot be found as an element, but rather as I2 molecules. When it reacts with water, the product is hypoiodite.
If two atoms of nitrogen completely react with six atoms of hydrogen to form two molecules of ammonia which best describes the number of hydrogen atoms present in the two molecules of ammonia?
Two molecules of ammonia contain 6 hydrogen atoms.
Why does iodine react with sugar?
Iodine does not react with sugar, it reacts with starch.
If an atom of sulfur were allowed to react with atoms of hydrogen which of the molecules would be formed?
h2s
How many molecules of oxgen are needed to react 100 atoms with all the magnesium?
50
What atoms in the CFC molecule can destroy thousands of ozone molecules in the upper atmosphere?
The CFC's molecules are ODS. They react with ozone to deplete it. The Chlorine and Fluorine are main atoms.
Does iodine react in hydrochloric acid solution?
Iodine will will not react with hydroelectric acid
How compounds affect an atoms stability?
Most atoms are not stable in their natural state, so they tend to react with other atoms in different ways to become more stable.Read more: How_do_compounds_affect_an_atoms_stability
Is neon made of molecules or separate atoms?
Neon is an element, so it is composed of atoms. Neon is also a noble gas, which means it generally does not react to form molecules of any kind.
