By the early 1890s, the Pinkerton National Detective Agency employed more agents than there were members of the United States Army.
Iodine monochloride is the chemical compound with the formula ICl. It is a red-brown compound that melts near room temperature. Because of the difference in the electronegativity of iodine and chlorine, ICl is highly polar and behaves as a source of I+. Â»
This section lists some binary compounds with halogens (known as halides), oxygen (known as oxides), hydrogen (known as hydrides), and some other compounds of iodine.For each compound, a formal oxidation number for iodine is given, but the usefulness of this number is limited for p-block elements in particular.Based upon that oxidation number, an electronic configuration is also given but note that for more exotic compounds you should view this as a guide only.his section lists some binary compounds with halogens (known as halides), oxygen (known as oxides), hydrogen (known as hydrides), and some other compounds of iodine.
