Fe+I2

The reaction between iron (Fe) and iodine (I2) leads to the formation of iron(III) iodide. The balanced chemical equation for the reaction can be written as: \[ 2 \, \text{Fe} + 3 \, \text{I}_2 \rightarrow 2 \, \text{FeI}_3 \] In this reaction, two moles of iron react with three moles of iodine to produce two moles of iron(III) iodide (FeI3). Iron(III) iodide is typically a brownish solid. ### Key Points: - **Reactants**: Iron (Fe) and Iodine (I2). - **Product**: Iron(III) iodide (FeI3). - **Type of Reaction**: Synthesis reaction.
