An iodide ion is an iodine atom with a −1 charge. Compounds with iodine in formal oxidation state −1 are called iodides. This can include ionic compounds such as caesium iodide or covalent compounds such as carbon tetraiodide.

When iodine becomes an ion is the ion larger or smaller?

When iodine becomes an ion, it typically gains an electron to form a negative ion (iodide ion). This addition of an electron causes the ion to become slightly larger in size due to the increased electron-electron repulsion, which can lead to a slight expansion of its electron cloud and thus the overall size of the ion.
