Periodate (/ p ə ˈ r aɪ. ə d eɪ t / pə-RY-ə-dayt) is an anion composed of iodine and oxygen.It is one of a number of oxyanions of iodine and is the highest in the series, with iodine existing in oxidation state +7.
Because the S 2− anion has a subscript of 2 in the formula (giving a 4− charge), the compound must be balanced with a 4+ charge on the Pb cation (lead can form cations with a 4+ or a 2+ charge). Thus, the compound is made of one Pb 4+ cation to every two S 2− anions, the compound is balanced, and its name is written as lead(IV) sulfide.
Iodine can form compounds using multiple oxidation states. Iodine is quite reactive, but it is much less reactive than the other halogens. For example, while chlorine gas will halogenate carbon monoxide, nitric oxide, and sulfur dioxide (to phosgene, nitrosyl chloride, and sulfuryl chloride respectively), iodine
[Mg(H 2 O) 6] 2+ → [Mg(H 2 O) 5 (OH)] + + H 3 O + (decomposes in water) MgCl 2 ·nH 2 O → Mg(OH)Cl + HCl + (n-1)H 2 O (decomposes when heated) Magnesium chloride is an ionic compound, which can be electrolysed in a molten state to form magnesium and chlorine gas. The properties of magnesium bromide and magnesium iodide are similar.
Magnesium iodide is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Mg I 2. It forms various hydrates MgI 2 ·xH 2 O. Magnesium iodide is a salt of magnesium and hydrogen iodide. These salts are typical ionic halides, being highly soluble in water.
IUPAC nomenclature is used for the naming of chemical compounds, based on their chemical composition and their structure. [1] For example, one can deduce that 1-chloropropane has a Chlorine atom on the first carbon in the 3-carbon propane chain.
For groups of compounds named after a simple parent compound, articles about the group should be located at the plural of the parent compound name, e.g. hydrazines, silanes, boranes, diphosphenes. Similarly, salts and esters of carboxylic acids should collectively be referred to by the plural of the carboxylate.
The first examples of these stable magnesium(I) compounds were reported in 2007. [2] The chemistry of Mg is dominated by the +2 oxidation state and prior to 2007 only examples of crystalline compounds with short Mg-Mg distances that may indicate an Mg-Mg bond were known, such as the ternary metal hydrides Mg 2 RuH 4, Mg 3 RuH 3, and Mg 4 IrH 5 ...
