Historically, the quantity of palladium in a sample may be determined gravimetrically by precipitation as palladium(II) iodide. Unlike the chloride and bromide, palladium(II) iodide is not quite as soluble in excess iodide.[2]
Properties
Palladium(II) iodide is insoluble in water by itself, but in the presence of excess iodide it may dissolve due to the formation of the PdI42− anion. While in solution it can act as a catalyst in some organic reactions.[3]
