To calculate the moles of iodine in the given reaction, one must use stoichiometric relationships based on the balanced equation. The discussion emphasizes the importance of having data, such as concentrations or volumes of reactants, to perform accurate calculations. Without this data, the question lacks context and cannot be effectively addressed. Participants highlight that the reaction alone is insufficient for determining moles. Accurate calculations require both the reaction equation and relevant quantitative information.

How do i calculate the moles of iodine present in this equation?

I2(aq) + 2S2O32-(aq) = 2I-(aq) + S4O62-(aq)

Thanks for your help

Question as posted doesn't make sense. Surely you have some data that your calculations should be based on, not just the reaction equation.
