Question: Rate Law from Initial Rates I - ( aq ) + OCl - ( aq ) - > IO - ( aq ) + Cl

Rate Law from Initial Rates
I-(aq)+ OCl-(aq)-> IO-(aq)+ Cl-(aq)
The above reaction was studied (at a particular temperature) and the following data were obtained:
[I-]0(mol L-1)[OCl-]0(mol L-1) Initial Rate(mol L-1 s-1)
0.1600.1205.64\times 10-2
0.0400.0607.06\times 10-3
0.3200.0605.64\times 10-2
0.0800.1202.82\times 10-2
Which of the following expressions for the rate law are completely consistent with the above experimental data.
-d[OCl-]/dt = k[I-][OCl-]2
k[I-][OCl-]= d[IO-]/dt
-d[I-]/dt = k[OCl-][I-]
d[IO-]/dt = k[I-]2
k[OCl-]3= d[Cl-]/dt1
Calculate the rate constant (k).(Units required.)
