This reaction may be misunderstood as a direct reaction between the thiosulphate and iodate ions , however, in practice an iodide and acid mediated production of iodine from the iodate is used to react with the thiosulphate.
A standard reaction used to calibrate a solution of sodium thiosulphate is as follows:
Acid and potassium iodide are added to a solution of potassium iodate getting the following reaction:
KIO3 + 5KI + 3H2SO4 = 3I2 + 3K2SO4 + 3H2O
represented by the following ionic equation:
IO3- + 5I- + 6H+ = 3I2 + 3H2O
Thiosulpathe is titrated against this solution (effectively against iodine):
I2 + 2Na2S2O3 = Na2S4O6 + 2NaI
represented by the following ionic equation:
I2 + 2S2O32- = S4O62- + 2I-
where the dark brown coloured solution of iodine turns pale yellow and finally colourless as the reaction proceeds (starch is used as indicator after the pale yellow transition forming a black solution due to an iodine-starch complex which turns colourless upon further addition of thiosulphate).
1:6
2(H^+)+2(I^-) =I2(aq)+H2O
The iodine produced from the KIO3 reacts with the starch to produce the blue black colour used as the indicator
No. Potassium iodide, KI, does not contain oxygen, while potassium iodate, KIO3, does.
The specified amounts of materials add to 814.78 grams total. Therefore, the percentage concentration by mass of potassium iodate is 100(3.05/814.78) or 0.374 percent, to the justified number of significant digits, and the percentage concentration by mass of potassium hydroxide is 100(6.23/814.78) or 0.765 percent, to the justified number of significant digits.

Potassium iodate is composed of a potassium ion, K+, and and iodate ion, IO3-. The formula unit is KIO3.
(1) io3- + 5i- + 6h+ ® 3i2 + 3h2o (2) i2 + 2s2o32- ® 2i- + s4o62-
No. Potassium iodide, KI, does not contain oxygen, while potassium iodate, KIO3, does.
Iodine in the iodized salt exist as iodine salts (potassium iodide/iodate or sodium iodide/iodate).These salts are dissolved and dissociated in the organism as NaCl.
This is a wrongly stated question: KI is not potassium iodate but potassium iodide, potassium iodateis KIO3 and not KI. So this has to be rephrased.
There is no such compound as KCIO3 However, KClO3 (with a lowercase L) is potassium chlorate.
This element is iodine - added as potassium iodide or potassium iodate.
Iodine is added to salt as potassium (sodium) iodide or potassium (sodium) iodate. An iodine deficiency is a source of thyroide diseases or can lead to idiocy.
