So you added the I- to your solutions when you added KI.  KI is a strong 
electrolyte and completely dissociates when placed in water. As such the 
molarity of the I- ion is equal to the molarity of KI. You will need, 
however, to use the diluted value of I- in your calculations.  For that 
you can use the dilution equation $M_1V_1=M_2V_2$. Let me know if you 
get stuck or have further questions.

Also remember that your final volume in each flask is 151 ml and not 150 
ml.
