Iodine-131 is not natural, matter of fact it is a synthetically produced isotope (im doing this for my science assignment aswell)
No, irradiation and radioactive iodine are not the same. Irradiation is the process of exposing something to radiation, while radioactive iodine is a form of iodine that emits radiation and is used in medical treatments, such as for thyroid conditions.
Yes, if Synthroid contains Levothyroxine (3,5,3',5'-Tetraiodo-L-thyronine) then there is 4 Iodine atoms per molecule (..Tetraiodo..) in it![You should ask your chemist for confirmation]Wrong answer: No.Levothyroxine (ingredient in Synthroid, Levoxyl, etc...) is T4 which your body would make on its own from iodine and tyrosine if your thyroid were functioning properly. You would most likely not need to supplement with iodine since your body is not making its own thyroid hormone, but relys on T4 from Synthroid.
Iodine crystals are solid, crystalline form of elemental iodine, while iodine solution is a liquid mixture of elemental iodine and either alcohol or water. Iodine crystals are typically used for storage and long-term preservation, while iodine solution is commonly used for disinfection and medical purposes.
The name of this compound is iodine heptafluoride.
The solute in tincture of iodine is iodine. It is dissolved in alcohol and water to form the solution.
no
Iodine is found in nature and is not synthesized. As an example, there is iodine in sea water.
No, irradiation and radioactive iodine are not the same. Irradiation is the process of exposing something to radiation, while radioactive iodine is a form of iodine that emits radiation and is used in medical treatments, such as for thyroid conditions.
The common name for iodine is iodine.

Iodine is a chemical element, while povidone iodine is a complex of iodine and the polymer povidone. Povidone iodine is commonly used as an antiseptic due to its slower release of iodine compared to pure iodine.
Iodine ion is not consumed; in the first step the iodine ion is oxidized to iodine, in the second step iodine is reduced to iodine ion.

Iodine crystals are typically used for storage and long-term preservation, while iodine solution is commonly used for disinfection and medical purposes.
