Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(1.1 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{dm}^{-3} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}\).

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(3 \mathrm{I}^{-}+\mathrm{S}_2 \mathrm{O}_8^{2-} \longrightarrow \mathrm{I}_3^{-}+2 \mathrm{SO}_4^{2-}\)
Rate of reaction
\(=-\frac{1}{3} \frac{\mathrm{~d}\left[\mathrm{I}^{-}\right]}{\mathrm{dt}}=-\frac{\mathrm{d}\left[\mathrm{~S}_2 \mathrm{O}_8^{2-}\right]}{\mathrm{dt}}=\frac{\mathrm{d}\left[\mathrm{I}_3^{-}\right]}{\mathrm{dt}}=\frac{1}{2} \frac{\mathrm{~d}\left[\mathrm{SO}_4^{2-}\right]}{\mathrm{dt}}\)
Hence, \(\frac{\mathrm{d}\left[\mathrm{S}_2 \mathrm{O}_8^{2-}\right]}{\mathrm{dt}}=\frac{1}{2} \frac{\mathrm{~d}\left[\mathrm{SO}_4^{2-}\right]}{\mathrm{dt}}\)
\(=\frac{1}{2} \times 2.2 \times 10^{-2}=1.1 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{dm}^{-3} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}\)
