Iodine is obtained from the members of Brown algae.
Option: B
Explanation:
- Iodine is extracted from the brown algae Laminaria digitata. They are the largest and most efficient accumulators of iodine among the living organisms.
- Brown algae are also known as ribbon seaweeds. They accumulate iodine by obtaining iodide ions from the sea water.
- Seaweed is heated into an ash, mixed in boiling water, filtered, and hydrogen peroxide is added to the solution to oxidize iodide to iodine.
- The iodine is then extracted by solvent ‘extraction and evaporation’.
