Problem
The hypochlorite ion reacts with iodide ion in aqueous solution according to the stoichiometry ClO⁻(aq) + 2 I⁻(aq) → I₂(aq) + Cl⁻(aq). Initial-rate data at 298 K are listed.| Trial | [ClO⁻]₀ (M) | [I⁻]₀ (M) | Initial rate (mol·L⁻¹·s⁻¹) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 0.010 | 0.020 | 4.8 × 10⁻⁴ |
| 2 | 0.020 | 0.020 | 9.6 × 10⁻⁴ |
| 3 | 0.020 | 0.040 | 3.84 × 10⁻³ |
