Chapter 14, Problem 38E

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The rate law for the given reaction and the units of the rate constant.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The average value of the rate constant for the disappearance of ${\text{S}}_{\text{2}}{\text{O}}_8^{2-}$ .

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The relation between the rate of disappearance of ${\text{S}}_2{\text{O}}_8^{2-}$ and rate of disappearance of ${\text{I}}^{-}$ in the given reaction.

(d)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The rate of disappearance of ${\text{I}}^{-}$ when the concentration of ${\text{S}}_2{\text{O}}_8^{2-}$ is $0.025\text{M}$ and the concentration of ${\text{I}}^{-}$ is $0.050\text{M}$ .
