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)

Rate of Osmosis vs Solute Concentration Introduction: In nature‚ the quest to reach equilibrium‚ or the state of rest or balance due to the equal action of opposing forces (http://www.dictionary.com). Osmosis and diffusion are two ways that cells reach this equilibrium‚ without exerting energy. Due to the unique nature of the phospholipid bilayer‚ small molecules can pass through the semipermeable membrane easily‚ through diffusion (https://www.biologycorner.com). Water‚ however‚ has a slightly more
