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

Capital Assed Pricing Model‚ widely known as CAPM is essentially an equilibrium relationship between expected return and risk of an asset and that is used in the pricing of risky securities. CAPM is the result of William Sharpe (1964) and John Lintner (1965). Sharpe took the Nobel prize in 1990 for the asset pricing theory. CAPM is used for a range of applications and purposes‚ these include estimating the cost of equity capitals for firms as well as evaluating the performance of managed portfolios
