Predict the products of the electrolysis of molten nickel(II) iodide. Write an ionic half-equation for the formation of one of these products. products:

ionic half-equation:

Respuesta :

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The electrolysis of  nickel(II) iodide yields nickel solid and iodine gas.

In the oxidation half equation;

2I^-(aq)-------> I2(g) + 2e

In the reduction half equation;

Ni^2+(aq) + 2e  -----> Ni(s)

These are the half equations of the process;

The  overall equation is;

Ni^2+(aq) + 2I^-(aq)-------> NiI2
