Sure thing .Understand. Sorry for the use of incorrect notion.

Amazing and detailed answer! That’s my goal, to create a solution with mostly iodine (I 2) without adding any iodides, potassium, sodium etc… I knew the solubility of I2 un water was insufficient, but wasn’t sure about reaction of ethanolic I2 with water later on.Thank you so much. I really...

Thank you! That’s interesting! When you say more base, you mean dissolve the iodine crystals in more ethanol? Or iodine/ethanol drops in more water? Also would my calculation be accurate to add 10 grams of I2 to 1 liter of ethanol to make 1% solution? Last thing… So do you think that I2...

Yes, so much we don’t know. Thank you.

Yes, I believe you describe the Lugols solution. That’s 5% I2, 10% KI as potassium iodide. I wonder(in this case) what happens after you add the 99% ethanol I2 solution back to water, let’s say 10 drops. Does it change its chemical structure? Or is it just molecular iodine I2 in water. I...

Thank you, I wasn’t sure since I2 molecular iodine is very reactive and does change as a specie, depending on the solution. For example…. When you orally ingest I2 in aqueous solution, it changes in your body from Iodine I2 to Iodide I-. If I understand this correctly. I also wonder when you...

Hello everyone, Does iodine specie change after diluting in ethanol 99%? I’m talking about I-, KI or other kinds of of iodine species. Or it stays in I2 form? I’m looking to make 1% I2 molecular iodine ethanol solution from iodine crystals. Would the ratio be 10 g per 1 liter? Thank you all for...

I’m currently fascinated by the the element iodine. Hoping to find out more about this topic, and other elements.
