A mixture of iodine and sulfur crystals can be separated by treatment with carbon (IV) sulfide to filter off iodine. This is because iodine dissolves in carbon (IV) sulfide, while sulfur does not. Therefore, adding carbon (IV) sulfide to the mixture will dissolve the iodine, allowing it to be separated from the sulfur by filtration. Water, ethanoic acid, and methanol would not be effective in separating iodine and sulfur because they do not have the same solvent properties as carbon (IV) sulfide towards iodine.
