Solution
Rate of reaction
`-(1/3)(d[I^-])/dt = -(d[S_2O_8^-2])/dt = +(d[I_3^-])/dt = +(1/2)(d[SO_4^-2])/dt`
`(d[SO_4^-2])/dt=2.2xx10^-2 "M/s"`
(a)
`-(1/3)(d[I^-])/dt = (1/2)(d[SO_4^-2])/dt`
`-(d[I^-])/dt=3/2xx2.2xx10^-2`
`-(d[I^-])/dt=3.3xx10^-2 " M/s"`
(b)
`-(d[S_2O_s^(-2)])/dt=(1/2)(d[SO_4^-2])/dt`
`-(d[S_2O_s^(-2)])/dt=1/2xx2.2xx10^-2`
`-(d[S_2O_s^(-2)])/dt=1.1xx10^-2 " M/s"`
(c)
`(d[I_3^-])/dt=(1/2)(d[SO_4^-2])/dt`
`(d[I_3^-])/dt=1/2xx2.2xx10^-2`
`(d[I_3^-])/dt=1.1xx10^-2`
`-(d[I_3^-])/dt=-1.1xx10^-2 " M/s"`
