Most Important Selected Qs for JEE AdvancedChemistryd and f Block Elements
Which of the following statement/statements is/are correct?
Options
- ASolid I ₂ is freely soluble in water
- BSolid I ₂ is freely soluble in water but only in presence of excess KI
- CSolid I ₂ is freely soluble in CCI ₄
- DSolid I ₂ is freely soluble in hot water
Correct answer
C. Solid I ₂ is freely soluble in CCI ₄
Step-by-step solution
Hint : I ₂ dissolves in aqueous KI to form KI ₃ . I ₂ also dissolves in CCl ₄ as both are non polar compounds.
