AH! employees.oneonta.edu "The oxidizing agent you will use is potassium triiodide which is made by dissolving iodine in an aqueous solution of potassium iodide." This is more complete: A standard solution of triiodide is made by adding a weighed amount of standard potassium iodate (KIO3) to an excess of potassium iodide and then add adding strong acid to produce triiodide. chem.sc.edu So next time you want to scare the **** out of the other kiddies in the neighborhood, you know how to do it. :-) Although NI3 aisn't bad for that either: jchemed.chem.wisc.edu Must be the first time on SI there's been an extended discussion of inorganic chemistry. :-)
