Question

what's it the word equation for the reaction of bromine with aqueous potassium astaide. I don't want numbers I wantit with letters pls​

Answer 1

2 KI (aq) + Br2 (aq) → 2 KBr (aq) + I2 (s)

This is an oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction:

2 Br0 + 2 e- → 2 Br-I

(reduction)

2 I-I - 2 e- → 2 I0

(oxidation)

Br2 is an oxidizing agent, KI is a reducing agent.

This is a precipitation reaction: I2 is the formed precipitate.
