In this video, I talk about the myth that surrounds iodine, which has to be one of the most widely spread misconceptions in chemistry. It is often taught in class and even appears in textbooks.
I try to explain why this myth came to be and I offer a potential solution. This video took me a really really long time to make, so I hope you guys like it!
