The correct statement for the molecule CsI _ 3 , is :

The correct statement for the molecule CsI3{\text{CsI}}_{3}, is :

Options

  1. AIt is a covalent molecule.
  2. BIt contains Cs+{\text{Cs}}^{+} and I3−{\text{I}}_{3}^{-} ions.
  3. CIt contains Cs3+{\text{Cs}}^{3 +} and I−{\text{I}}^{-} ions.
  4. DIt contains Cs+,I−{\text{Cs}}^{+} {, I}^{-} and lattice I2{\text{I}}_{2} molecule.

Correct answer

B. It contains Cs+{\text{Cs}}^{+} and I3−{\text{I}}_{3}^{-} ions.

Step-by-step solution

I3−{\text{I}}_{3}^{-} ion is made by the addition of excess iodine to iodide solution.

I2+I−→I3−{\text{I}}_{2} + {\text{I}}^{-} \to {\text{I}}_{3}^{-}

Cs will always be in +1 oxidation state.
