    Iodine is formed when KI reacts with a solution of   [Pb. CET 2004]

    A) \[CuS{{O}_{4}}\]

    B) \[{{(N{{H}_{4}})}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\]

    C) \[ZnS{{O}_{4}}\]

    D) \[FeS{{O}_{4}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Iodine being a strong reducing agent reduce \[C{{u}^{2+}}\] ions to \[C{{u}^{+}}\] ions and itself gets oxidised to iodine. \[\underset{\text{Reduced}}{\overset{+2}{\mathop{2CuS{{O}_{4}}}}}\,+\underset{\text{Oxidised}}{\overset{-1}{\mathop{4KI}}}\,\to \overset{+1}{\mathop{C{{u}_{2}}{{I}_{2}}}}\,+\overset{0}{\mathop{{{I}_{2}}}}\,+2{{K}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\]
