In the reaction, `l_(2) + 2S_(2)O_(3)^(2-) rarr 2l^(-) + S_(4) O_(6)^(2-)`, equivalent weight of iodine will be equal to

A

Molecular weight

B

1/2 the molecular weight

C

1/4 the molecular weight

D

Twice the molecular weigh

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

B

`overset(0)(I_(2)) + 2S_(2)O_(3)^(-) to overset(-2)(2I^(-)) + S_(4)O_(6)^(2-)`
`therefore` Eq. wt `= (1)/(2) xx` molecular wt.
