Question

In the electrolysis of potassium iodide, iodine is formed at the ________​

Answer 1

Answer:

anode

Explanation:

In the electrolysis of an aqueous solution of potassium iodide, I– ions are oxidized at the anode preferentially to water molecules. Violet color at anode is due to iodine. Pink color at cathode is due to formation of OH– ions which renders the solution alkaline. OH– ions give pink color with phenolphthalein.

Answer 2

Answer:

it is formes in the cathode in the electrolysis of potassium iodide
