Is NaI soluble or insoluble?

Sodium iodide is a water-soluble ionic compound with a crystal lattice.

Is iodine soluble in water?

Iodine dissolves easily in chloroform and hexane but does not dissolve in water.

Why is iodine a solid?

Despite intermolecular forces being a weak individual force of attraction, collectively they are very strong and the numerous forces between iodine molecules means that more heat energy is required to break these intermolecular forces and separate the molecules therefore iodine is a solid.

Is iodide soluble in water?

Although non-polar molecular iodine cannot dissolve in water, it reacts with iodide ion to form something that can: the triiodide ion. When iodide and iodine meet at water/chloroform-hexane surfaces, the triiodide ion formed dissolves in the water, not the non-polar solvent mixture.

What kind of solid is I2?

molecular solid
I2 is a molecular solid. Each iodine molecule is made up of 2 iodine atoms, held together by a strong covalent bond. Each iodine molecule is held to another by weak Van Der Waal’s forces.

Is sodium iodide soluble in water Why or why not?

NaI is an ionic compound which can dissolve in water due to the polar nature of water molecules.
