Question

What is the basic difference between iodimetric and iodometric titrations? Explain with the help of equations involved in such typical titrations.

Answer 1

Explanation:

In iodimetry, a species is directly titrated with an iodine solution, but in iodometry a species is titrated with an iodide solution and then the released iodine is titrated with thiosulphate. ... Iodometry can be used to quantify oxidizing agents, whereas iodimetry can be used to quantify reducing agents.
