Iodine.<\/p>\n<p>Iodine is a chemical element with the symbol I and atomic number 53. The element has one of the highest atomic numbers of any naturally occurring non-metal. It is a non-metallic, lustrous, deep purple-black solid at standard temperature and pressure. When finely divided, it sublimes to a deep purple vapor. Iodine dissolves in water to form a deep purple solution.<\/p>\n<p>Iodine is a versatile element with many uses. It is used in the preparation of antiseptic solutions, such as iodine tincture. It is also used in the preparation of iodized salt, which is used to prevent iodine deficiency.
