How do they store iodine?
Iodine is commonly stored in a cool, dark, and dry place in a tightly sealed container. It should be kept away from heat sources and moisture to prevent degradation and maintain its potency. Handling should be done with care as iodine can stain surfaces and emit potentially harmful vapors.
Why do sample should be keep in dark place for 30minutes in determination of iodine value?
Samples are kept in the dark for 30 minutes in the determination of iodine value to prevent the oxidation of unsaturated fats by light. Exposure to light can cause the fats in the sample to undergo photooxidation, which can result in inaccurate measurement of the iodine value.
What is idometric titration?
Iodometry is one of the most important redox titration methods. Iodine reacts directly, fast and quantitively with many organic and inorganic substances. Thanks to its relatively low, pH independent redox potential, and reversibility of the iodine/iodide reaction, iodometry can be used both to determine amount of reducing agents (by direct titration with iodine) and of oxidizing agents (by titration of iodine with thiosulfate). In all cases the same simple and reliable method of end point detection, based on blue starch complex, can be used. Reversible iodine/iodide reaction mentioned above is 2I- ↔ I2 + 2e- and obviously whether it should be treated as oxidation with iodine or reduction with iodides depends on the other redox system involved. Second important reaction used excesivelly in iodometry is reduction of iodine with thiosulfate: 2S2O32- + I2 → S4O62- + 2I- In the case of both reactions it is better to avoid low pH. Thiosulfate is unstable in the presence of acids, and iodides in low pH can be oxidized by air oxygen to iodine. Both processes can be source of titration errors. Iodine is very weakly soluble in the water, and can be easily lost from the solution due to its volatility. However, in the presence of excess iodides iodine creates I3- ions. This lowers free iodine concentration and such solutions are stable enough to be used in lab practice. Still, we should remember that their shelf life is relatively short (they should be kept tightly closed in dark brown bottles, and standardized every few weeks). Iodine solutions are prepared dissolving elemental iodine directly in the iodides solution. Elemental iodine can be prepared very pure through sublimation, but because of its high volatility it is difficult to weight. Thus use of iodine as a standard substance, although possible, is not easy nor recommended. Iodine solutions can be easily normalized against arsenic (III) oxide (As2O3) or sodium thiosulfate solution. It is also possible to prepare iodine solutions mixing potassium iodide with potassium iodate in the presence of strong acid: 5I- + IO3- + 6H+ → 3I2 + 3H2O Potassium iodate is a primary substance, so solution prepared this way can have exactly known concentration. However, this approach is not cost effective and in lab practice it is much better to use iodate as a primary substance to standardize thiosulfate, and then standardize iodine solution against thiosulfate.

What is the control variable in titration?
In a titration experiment, the control variable is the volume of the titrant added to the analyte solution at each step. This volume should be kept consistent throughout the experiment to ensure accurate and reliable results.
What precaution should be taken in iodine solution?
Iodine solution is toxic if ingested, so it should be kept out of reach of children and pets. It should be stored in a tightly closed container, away from heat and light. When using iodine solution, avoid contact with skin and eyes, and work in a well-ventilated area to prevent inhalation of fumes.
Who kept learning alive in Europe during the Dark Ages?
the christian church.
How do they store iodine?
Iodine is commonly stored in a cool, dark, and dry place in a tightly sealed container. It should be kept away from heat sources and moisture to prevent degradation and maintain its potency. Handling should be done with care as iodine can stain surfaces and emit potentially harmful vapors.
Why do sample should be keep in dark place for 30minutes in determination of iodine value?
Samples are kept in the dark for 30 minutes in the determination of iodine value to prevent the oxidation of unsaturated fats by light. Exposure to light can cause the fats in the sample to undergo photooxidation, which can result in inaccurate measurement of the iodine value.
When was Kept in the Dark created?
Kept in the Dark was created in 1882.
Why are bats kept in dark cages?
in the forest the come out in the dark so they are kept in dark cages
What would you need if I am doing a science project about putting one plant in the dark inside and one plant outside in the light?
The project is on necessity of light for photosynthesis. Therefore, iodine solution is needd to test the formation of starch in the plant kept in light by photosynthesis. The plant kept in dark will show the absence of starch meaning there by no photosynthesis has taken place in dark.
What is idometric titration?
Iodometry is one of the most important redox titration methods. Iodine reacts directly, fast and quantitively with many organic and inorganic substances. Thanks to its relatively low, pH independent redox potential, and reversibility of the iodine/iodide reaction, iodometry can be used both to determine amount of reducing agents (by direct titration with iodine) and of oxidizing agents (by titration of iodine with thiosulfate). In all cases the same simple and reliable method of end point detection, based on blue starch complex, can be used. Reversible iodine/iodide reaction mentioned above is 2I- ↔ I2 + 2e- and obviously whether it should be treated as oxidation with iodine or reduction with iodides depends on the other redox system involved. Second important reaction used excesivelly in iodometry is reduction of iodine with thiosulfate: 2S2O32- + I2 → S4O62- + 2I- In the case of both reactions it is better to avoid low pH. Thiosulfate is unstable in the presence of acids, and iodides in low pH can be oxidized by air oxygen to iodine. Both processes can be source of titration errors. Iodine is very weakly soluble in the water, and can be easily lost from the solution due to its volatility. However, in the presence of excess iodides iodine creates I3- ions. This lowers free iodine concentration and such solutions are stable enough to be used in lab practice. Still, we should remember that their shelf life is relatively short (they should be kept tightly closed in dark brown bottles, and standardized every few weeks). Iodine solutions are prepared dissolving elemental iodine directly in the iodides solution. Elemental iodine can be prepared very pure through sublimation, but because of its high volatility it is difficult to weight. Thus use of iodine as a standard substance, although possible, is not easy nor recommended. Iodine solutions can be easily normalized against arsenic (III) oxide (As2O3) or sodium thiosulfate solution.

However, this approach is not cost effective and in lab practice it is much better to use iodate as a primary substance to standardize thiosulfate, and then standardize iodine solution against thiosulfate. Iodometry is one of the most important redox titration methods. Iodine reacts directly, fast and quantitively with many organic and inorganic substances. Thanks to its relatively low, pH independent redox potential, and reversibility of the iodine/iodide reaction, iodometry can be used both to determine amount of reducing agents (by direct titration with iodine) and of oxidizing agents (by titration of iodine with thiosulfate). In all cases the same simple and reliable method of end point detection, based on blue starch complex, can be used. Reversible iodine/iodide reaction mentioned above is 2I- ↔ I2 + 2e- and obviously whether it should be treated as oxidation with iodine or reduction with iodides depends on the other redox system involved. Second important reaction used excesivelly in iodometry is reduction of iodine with thiosulfate: 2S2O32- + I2 → S4O62- + 2I- In the case of both reactions it is better to avoid low pH. Thiosulfate is unstable in the presence of acids, and iodides in low pH can be oxidized by air oxygen to iodine. Both processes can be source of titration errors. Iodine is very weakly soluble in the water, and can be easily lost from the solution due to its volatility. However, in the presence of excess iodides iodine creates I3- ions. This lowers free iodine concentration and such solutions are stable enough to be used in lab practice. Still, we should remember that their shelf life is relatively short (they should be kept tightly closed in dark brown bottles, and standardized every few weeks). Iodine solutions are prepared dissolving elemental iodine directly in the iodides solution. Elemental iodine can be prepared very pure through sublimation, but because of its high volatility it is difficult to weight. Thus use of iodine as a standard substance, although possible, is not easy nor recommended.

What is the control variable in titration?
In a titration experiment, the control variable is the volume of the titrant added to the analyte solution at each step. This volume should be kept consistent throughout the experiment to ensure accurate and reliable results.
