Can the trivalent iron ion and the iodine ion coexist conditions?
No. Because ferric ions oxidize iodine.
The reaction is 2Fe (3+)+2I (-)=2Fe (2+)+I2
The generated iodine element reacts with iodine ion to form linear I3(-)
Reaction: I2+I-=I3(-)
What is the chemical nature of nitrite ions?
N in NO2- is +3 valence, so it has both oxidability and reducibility. In acid medium: HNO2/NO=0.99V, it has strong oxidability, and the oxidability of nitrite is stronger than that of nitrate.
1. Unstable under acid condition, easy disproportionation 3HNO2=HNO3+2NO+H2O without oxidant and reductant
2. I-ion can be oxidized to iodine in aqueous solution.
2HNO2+2I-+2H+=I2+2NO+2H2O
Sulfite can be oxidized to sulfuric acid.
2HNO2+H2SO3=H2SO4+2NO+H2O.
3. Reductive, oxidizable by strong oxidizer:
5 NaNO2+2 NaMnO4+3 H2SO4= Na2SO4+5 NaNO3+2 MnSO4+3 H2O
