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 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.
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 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.
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
Iron phosphide is a chemical compound of iron and phosphorus, with a formula of FeP.< [1] Its physical appearance is grey needles. Manufacturing of iron phosphide takes place at elevated temperatures, where the elements combine directly. [1] Iron phosphide reacts with moisture and acids producing phosphine (PH 3), a toxic and pyrophoric gas.
There is also an oral capsule that contains the oil, equivalent to 190 mg iodine. [18] [19] Iodized poppyseed oil (Lipiodol) given orally or intermuscularly produces a long-lasting store of iodine in the body, allowing very infrequent dosing. Iodized oil is a cost-effective way of combating iodine deficiency.
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 ...
