Chemical element with atomic number 53 (I) Iodine, 53 I Iodine Pronunciation / ˈ aɪ ə d aɪ n, - d ɪ n, - d iː n / (EYE -ə-dyne, -din, -deen) Appearance lustrous metallic gray solid ...
The Gmelin rare earths handbook lists 1522 °C and 1550 °C as two melting points given in the literature, the most recent reference [Handbook on the chemistry and physics of rare earths, vol.12 (1989)] is given with 1529 °C.
These iodine compounds are hypervalent because the iodine atom formally contains in its valence shell more than the 8 electrons required for the octet rule. Hypervalent iodine oxyanions are known for oxidation states +1, +3, +5, and +7; organic analogues of these moieties are known for each oxidation state except +7.
The melting point (or, rarely, liquefaction point) of a substance is the temperature at which it changes state from solid to liquid. At the melting point the solid and liquid phase exist in equilibrium. The melting point of a substance depends on pressure and is usually specified at a standard pressure such as 1 atmosphere or 100 kPa.
Indium(III) iodide is a pale yellow, very hygroscopic monoclinic solid (space group P2 1 /c (space group no. 14), a = 9.837 Å, b = 6.102 Å, c = 12.195 Å, β = 107.69°), [3] which melts at 210 °C to form a dark brown liquid and is highly soluble in water.
2 is nearly insoluble at room temperature, and thus precipitates out. [17] Other soluble compounds containing lead(II) and iodide can be used instead, for example lead(II) acetate [12] and sodium iodide. The compound can also be synthesized by reacting iodine vapor with molten lead between 500 and 700 °C. [18] A thin film of PbI
Cerium metal reacts with iodine when heated to form cerium(III) iodide: [2] 2 Ce + 3 I 2 → 2 CeI 3. It is also formed when cerium reacts with mercury(II) iodide at high temperatures: [2] 2 Ce + 3 HgI 2 → 2 CeI 3 + 3 Hg
Trifluoroiodomethane contains carbon, fluorine, and iodine atoms. Although iodine is several hundred times more efficient at destroying stratospheric ozone than chlorine, experiments have shown that because the weak C-I bond breaks easily under the influence of water (owing to the electron-attracting fluorine atoms), trifluoroiodomethane has an ozone depleting potential less than one ...
