Question

Sodium Chloride is soluble while iodine is slightly soluble . Explain what would happen if a

mixture of the two is dissolved and evaporated.

Answer 1

When all of the solvent (the water) has evaporated the NaCl will be a solid at the bottom of the beaker. IF the temperature was too high near the end of the evaporation process the I2 may have sublimed but some of the solid I2 should be there too.
