A sample of impure KI weighing 0.600 g is dissolved in water, the solution acidified, and 25.00 mL of 0.0400 M KIO3 (an excess ) is added. The iodate is reduced to I2 and the iodide is oxidized to I, The I2 is boiled off, the solution cooled, and an excess of pure KI is added to react with the unused KIO3. The I2 produced is titrated with 40.38 mL of 0.1053 N thiosulfate. Write the equations for the reactions which occurred and calculate the percentage of KI in the sample.
