Q. KI and ${CuSO}_{4}$ solutions on mixing produce
A) $\ {Cu}_{2}I_{2}\ + K_{2}{SO}_{4}$
B) ${Cu}_{2}I_{2} + I_{2} + K_{2}{SO}_{4}$
C) ${CuI}_{2} + \ K_{2}{SO}_{4}$
D) ${CuI}_{2} + \ I_{2} + \ K_{2}{SO}_{4}$
Explanation
(b)
${CuSO}_{4} + 2KI \longrightarrow \ {Cul}_{2} + \ K_{2}{SO}_{4}$
$2\ {Cul}_{2}\ \longrightarrow \ {Cu}_{2}I_{2}\ + \ I_{2}$
