Answers
Answer:
In acid solution practically all oxidizing agents will oxidize iodide ion to iodine quantitatively. The iodine formed in the reaction can then be titrated by means of a standard sodium thiosulfate solution. This type of indirect titration is given the general name of iodometry.
Iodometric methods of analysis have a wide applicability for the following reasons:
1. Potassium iodide, KI, is readily available in high purity.
2. A good indicator, starch, is available to signal the equivalence point in the reaction between iodine and thiosulfate. Starch turns blue-black in the presence of iodine. Therefore, when the blue-black color disappears, the iodine has been completely reduced to the iodide ion.
3. Iodometric reactions are rapid and quantitative.
4. A precise and stable reducing agent, sodium thiosulfate (Na2S2O3), is available to react with the iodine.
The amount of iodine liberated in the reaction between iodide ion and an oxidizing agent is a measure of the quantity of oxidizing agent originally present in the solution. The amount of standard sodium thiosulfate solution required to titrate the liberated iodine is then equivalent to the amount of oxidizing agent. Iodometric methods can be used for the quantitative determination of strong oxidizing agents such as potassium dichromate, permanganate, hydrogen peroxide, cupric ion and oxygen.
