Textbook Question
Textbook QuestionThe decomposition of hydrogen peroxide is catalyzed by iodide ion. The catalyzed reaction is thought to proceed by a two-step mechanism: H2O21aq2 + I - 1aq2¡H2O1l2 + IO- 1aq2 1slow2 IO- 1aq2 + H2O21aq2¡H2O1l2 + O21g2 + I - 1aq2 1fast2 (c) Assuming that the first step of the mechanism is rate determining, predict the rate law for the overall process.
