Aqueous solution of KI dissolves `I_(2)` to form `KI_(3)`. Which of the following statements is (are) true ?A. The solution contains `K^(3+)` and `I^(-)` ions.B. The solution contains `K^(+)` and `I_(3)^(-)` ions.C. The solution is violet in colour.D. In `KI_(3), I_(2)` behaves as Lewis acid and `I^(-)` as Lewis base.

Answer» Correct Answer - B::C::D
`KI(aq)+I_(2)(s)rarrKI_(3)(aq)+K^(+)(aq) +I_(3)^(-)(aq)` In polyhalide ion `I_(3)^(-)`, `I^(-)` behaves as a Lewis base and `I_(2)` as Lewis acid. `I_(3)^(-)` (aq) are violet coloured.
