Question

Kinetic data collected at 298K for following reaction:

2I(aq) ^- + S2O8(aq) ^-2 >>>>I2(aq) +2SO4(aq)^-2                 

                    2 Iodine Iodine 2                 


                    [I^-] moles/liter                 

                    0.125                 

                    0.125                 

                    [S2O8^-2] moles/liter                 

                    0.050                

                    0.150                 

                    Rate,moles/minute                 

                    0.015                 

                    0.044           

     

                    What is the rate law expression with respect to S2O8(aq)^-2?

Explain in steps in details

Explanation / Answer

Rate1 = K[I-]^m[S2O8]^n


0.015 =K[0.125]^m[0.05]^n................1



Rate 2 = K[I-]^m[S2O8]^n

0.044 = K [0.125]^m[0.15]^n.................2


if we do rate1/rate2


0.015/0.13 = (0.05/0.15)^m


0.34 = (0.34)^n


n= 1

oder of reaction w.r.t. S2O8 ion is 1
