Question

The reaction of O3 with KI Poduces

Answer 1

Potassium iodide react with ozone and water to produce iodine, oxygen and potassium hydroxide.

2KI + O3 + H2O → I2 + O2 + 2KOH


hope this helps ☺☺

Answer 2

Answer:

The reaction of O₃ with KI produces KOH, iodine and oxygen.

2KI + H₂O + O₃ → 2KOH + I₂ + O₂

Explanation:

Ozone is a very strong oxidizer. It exists as a triatomic molecule. It is a more powerful oxidizer than dioxygen. This is due to the fact that ozone can rapidly disintegrate into a nascent oxygen atom, which is more reactive than O₂.

When ozone comes into contact with potassium iodide, it converts it to iodine.

2KI + H₂O + O₃ → 2KOH + I₂ + O₂
