Iodine readily dissolves in most organic solvents such as hexane, benzene, carbon tetrachloride and chloroform due to its lack of polarity.
Explanation:
- Although the iodide ion is colorless, iodide solutions can acquire a brownish color as a result of the oxidation of the iodide by atmospheric oxygen to liberate iodine.
- The OH bond of ethanol has some polarity, but the bond is non-polar, and therefore iodine has little solubility in ethanol.
- Iodine is a non-polar molecule because the iodine–iodine bond is a pure covalent bond.
- The difference in electronegativity (EN) between the two iodine atoms is zero.
- Iodine is only slightly soluble in water but readily dissolves in solutions of sodium or potassium iodide.
- Iodine tincture is a solution of iodine and potassium iodide in alcohol.
