Question: C 6 H 8 O 6 ( aq ) + I 2 ( aq ) 2 H + ( aq ) + 2 I

C6H8O6 (aq) + I2 (aq) → 2 H+ (aq) + 2 I (aq) + C6H6O6 (aq)  (Reaction 1)

2 I (aq) + 2 H+ (aq) + H2O2 (aq) → I2 (aq) + 2 H2O (l)           (Reaction 2)


Rate = k [I−]x [H2O2]y [C6H8O6]z   Equation 1


Where the rate is constant, k has units of M/s.

Table

Reagent                  Molarity (M)

C6H8O6              0.0056              

I-                          0.32

H2O2                        0.88

Using  Table determine the rate law (Equation 1) for the reaction. Your reaction orders solve for x, y, z, and k  should be rounded to whole numbers or simple fractions.
