Calcium iodide (chemical formula CaI2) is the ionic compound of calcium and iodine. This colourless deliquescent solid is a salt that is highly soluble in water. Its properties are similar to those for related salts, such as calcium chloride. It is used in photography.[1] It is also used in cat food as a source of iodine.

Reactions

Henri Moissan first isolated pure calcium in 1898 by reducing calcium iodide with pure sodium metal:[3]

CaI2 + 2 Na → 2 NaI + Ca

Calcium iodide can be formed by treating calcium carbonate, calcium oxide, or calcium hydroxide with hydroiodic acid:[4]

CaCO3 + 2 HI → CaI2 + H2O + CO2

Calcium iodide slowly reacts with oxygen and carbon dioxide in the air, liberating iodine, which is responsible for the faint yellow color of impure samples.[5]

2 CaI2 + 2 CO2 + O2 → 2 CaCO3 + 2 I2
