In a study of the decomposition of hydrogen iodide on a gold surface at 150 °C HI(g)% H2(g) + ½ I½(g) the concentration of HI was followed as a function of time. It was found that a graph of [HI] versus time in seconds gave a straight line with a slope of -1.91×10-4 Ms and a y-intercept of 0.235 M. Based on this plot, the reaction is reaction is order in HI and the rate constant for the Ms!
