Q30 / 160 · AP EAMCET 2022 (08 Jul Shift 1) · Chemistry

When $\mathrm{KI}$ is reacted with $\mathrm{O}_3$ under aqueous condition the product formed is

  • A
    $\mathrm{I}_2 \mathrm{O}_4$
  • B
    $\mathrm{I}_2 \mathrm{O}_5$
  • C
    $\mathrm{I}_4 \mathrm{O}_9$
  • Correct answer
    D
    $\mathrm{I}_2$

Solution

$\mathrm{O}_3(\mathrm{~g})+2 \mathrm{I}^{-}(\mathrm{aq})+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}(\mathrm{l}) \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{OH}^{-}(\mathrm{aq})+\mathrm{I}_2(\mathrm{~s})+\mathrm{O}_2(\mathrm{~g})$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
