To prepare a 5% potassium iodide solution, weigh 5 grams of potassium iodide and dissolve it in 100 mL of water. Stir until the potassium iodide is completely dissolved to achieve a 5% solution.
To make a 3.0% solution of potassium iodide, you would need to dissolve 6.0 g of potassium iodide in 200 g of water. This is because 3.0% of 200 g is 6.0 g.
The percent composition of potassium in potassium iodide (KI) is 58.5%. This is calculated by dividing the atomic mass of potassium by the molar mass of KI and multiplying by 100.
Potassium iodide solution is a compound because it is a pure substance made up of potassium and iodine chemically bonded together in a fixed ratio.
When potassium iodide and lead nitrate are mixed, a yellow precipitate of lead iodide forms in the solution, while potassium nitrate remains dissolved in the liquid.
The compound precipitate formed when potassium iodide is added to a solution of lead nitrate is lead iodide, which is a yellow precipitate. This reaction is a double displacement reaction where the potassium ion and nitrate ion switch partners to form potassium nitrate and lead iodide.
