The formed FeI3 is dark yellow to brown in colour. 3NaI + Fe(NO3)3 → FeI3 + 3NaNO3 After the addition of dichloro-methane the colour still remains the same. The equation is as follows: 2FeI3 + 3CH2Cl2 → 3CH2I2 + 2FeCl3 All the above reactions involved in the test are double displacement reactions. So, the above test is positive (formation of dark yellow to brown color solution), it indicates the presence of iodide ion in the solution. Question : Explain more about this experiment results.arrow_forward
