  1. A Solid \(\mathrm{I}_2\) is freely soluble in water
  2. B Solid \(\mathrm{I}_2\) is freely soluble in water but only in presence of excess KI
  3. C Solid \(\mathrm{I}_2\) is freely soluble in \(\mathrm{CCI}_4\)
  4. D Solid \(\mathrm{I}_2\) is freely soluble in hot water
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) Solid \(\mathrm{I}_2\) is freely soluble in \(\mathrm{CCI}_4\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Hint : \(\mathrm{I}_2\) dissolves in aqueous KI to form \(\mathrm{KI}_3\). \(\mathrm{I}_2\) also dissolves in \(\mathrm{CCl}_4\) as both are non polar compounds.
