Kinetics: The Rate of a Chemical Reaction
Objectives:
1. To study the kinetics of chemical reaction, 2 I- + S2 O82- I2 + 2 SO42- .
2. To study the effects of reactant concentration (persulphate, S2O82-, and iodide, I-) and temperature on the rate of chemical reactions. ( i) Study the effect of 0.20M (S2O82-) on the rate of chemical reaction. ( ii) Study the effect of 0.10M (S2O82-) on the rate of chemical reaction. ( iii) Study the effect of 0.05M (S2O82-) on the rate of chemical reaction. ( iv) Study the effect of 0.20M (I-) on the rate of chemical reaction. ( v) Study the effect of 0.10M (I-) on the rate of chemical reaction. ( vi) Study the effect of 0.05M (I-) on the rate of chemical reaction. ( vii) Study the effect of temperature at 288K on the rate of chemical reaction. (viii) Study the effect of temperature at 305K on the rate of chemical reaction. ( ix) Study the effect of temperature at 316K on the rate of chemical reaction.
3. To study the order of reaction for S2O82-.
4. To study the order of reaction for I-.
5. To study the rate equation of 2 I- + S2 O82- I2 + 2 SO42-.
6. To study the rate constant in the rate equation of 2 I- + S2 O82- I2 + 2 SO42-.
