experiment is to determine the rate law and the activation energy for the reaction between persulfate ion‚ S2O82-‚ and iodide ion‚ I-: S2O82-(aq) + 2 I-(aq) 2 SO42-(aq) + I2(aq) The rate law can be written as Reaction rate = (1) Where m and n are the orders with respect to S2O82- and I-‚ respectively‚ and k is the rate constant. Determining the rate law involves determining the values of m and n. The temperature dependence of the rate constant is given by (2)
