How to Differentiate Iodimetry and Iodometry?

Iodometry is the quantitative analysis of a solution of an oxidizing agent by adding an iodide that reacts to form iodine whereas iodimetry is a volumetric analysis involving either titration with a standardized solution of iodine.

Which indicator is used in iodometry or iodimetry titration?

In an iodometric titration, a starch solution is used as an indicator as it can absorb the I2 that is released.

What is iodimetry example?

Volumetric analysis involving either titration with a standardized solution of iodine, or the release by a substance under examination of iodine in soluble form, so that its concentration can be determined by titration, using starch as an indicator.
