Summary This experiment will measure the rate of oxidation of iodide ions by persulphate ions to derive the rate law for the reaction. Starch will be added to the reaction to facilitate the measure of time during the reaction. The reactant solutions will contain (NH4)2SO4 and KI‚ represented as: (NH4)2S2O8 + 2KI -> I2 + (NH4)2SO4 + K2SO4 This can be simplified to: S2O82- + 2I- -> I2 + 2SO42- These equations can only be carried out and be visible after the iodine has completely
