Question

select the single best answer. is iodine (i2) more soluble in water or in carbon disulfide (cs2)? more soluble in water more soluble in carbon disulfide

Answer 1

Iodine is more soluble in carbon disulfide (cs2) than water .

What is Iodine ?

Iodine is the heaviest of the stable halogen with the symbol I and atomic number 53.

What is carbon disulfide ?

It is a  colorless, neurotoxic, volatile liquid with the formula CS₂ and structure S=C=S. The chemical compound is frequently used in organic chemistry as well as an industrial and chemical non-polar solvent and as a building block.

As Iodine is the non polar solvent and non polar solvent best dissolves with non polar one. Hence Iodine is more soluble in carbon disulfide (cs2) than water  because water is a polar Solvent.

Hence, Iodine is more soluble in carbon disulfide (cs2) than water .
