Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the question regarding the increase in the solubility of iodine in an aqueous solution of potassium iodide, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the solubility of iodine in water Iodine (I2) is known to be insoluble in water. This means that when iodine is added to water, it does not dissolve significantly. **Hint:** Remember that some substances have low solubility in water due to their molecular structure. ### Step 2: Introduce potassium iodide (KI) ...
