Explanation:
When chlorine (Cl 2) gas is passed through an aqueous solution of potassium iodide (KI), the products formed are solid iodine (I 2) and potassium chloride (KCl). This is a displacement reaction in which the less reactive iodine in potassium iodide is displaced by the more reactive chlorine. The equation can be written as:
2KI (aq) + Cl 2(g) → 2 KCl(aq) + I 2(s)
chlorine + potassium iodide → potassium chloride + iodine
