Question
What do you observe when Cl2 is passed through potassium iodide (KI) solution.

Solution
If in the solution of KI (Potassium iodide), we pass Chlorine gas (Cl2), then Chlorine will displace iodine from KI, and form Potassium Chloride (KCl), and liberates iodine,
\[\ce{Cl2 (aq) + 2 KI(aq) → 2 KCl (aq) + I2 (aq)}\]
When Iodine gas is passed into starch solution the solution becomes blue-black in colour.
