iodides
Element fifty-three compounds
Iodides are chemical compounds containing iodine combined with another element or group, typically a metal: potassium iodide, silver iodide.
They appear in medicine, photography, and water treatment.
Table salt is often fortified with potassium iodide to prevent thyroid disorders.
