Results for 'antimony':
EXPERIMENT 1 --------------- Elementary antimony dissolves in aqua regia at a fairly high rate. While it dissolves a lot of gas is produced. When the liquid is diluted with water, then a white precipitate is formed, due to hydrolysis of the reaction product. It looks as if the antimony is oxidized to the +3 oxidation state.
EXPERIMENT 2 --------------- A clock reaction that precipitates antimony sulfide.
EXPERIMENT 3 --------------- Antimony reacts with iodine, giving antimony triiodide. This reaction, however, is not very fast and quite a large excess amount of finely powedered antimony is needed to get all iodine reacted. Antimony triiodide (SbI3) has quite remarkable properties. Its solution is pale yellow/green, the solid has a bright orange/red color and the vapor is colorless or nearly colorless. The liquid (molten) material is yellow.
EXPERIMENT 4 --------------- When antimony is added to liquid bromine, then a violent reaction occurs, even with appearance of sparks.
