Detailed Solution
KI reacts with CuSO4 solution to produce cuprous iodide (white precipitate) and I2 (which gives brown colour). Iodine reacts with hypo solution. Decolourisaiton of solution shows the appearance of white precipitate.CuSO4+2KI→CuI2+K2SO42CuI2→White ppt.2CuI+BrownI2 I2+2Na2S2O3→colourlessNa2S4O6+2NaI
