iodometric or iodimetric

is titration process in determing Iodine in CCl4 is iodimetric or iodometric?

It’s called iodometry, so the second one (iodometric) would be appropriate.

Unless, of course, it isn't.

Well I can't remember learning about this one so I got out my 1960 copy of Vogel and hey he has a whole chapter on the subject.

Here is the first page

I think it depends on the other experimental details.
Can you post  them?
If I was trying to measure I2 in CCl4 I might start with a colourimetric assay unless I really needed good precision.

Thank you for the correction, I was unaware there was a difference.
