6. What are the units for the rate constant, k, in this reaction? Are rate constant units always the same for every different reaction? Explain. 7. It was mentioned in the handout that what we measure in this experiment is the (average) initial rate of the reaction. We measure the time it takes for the first 6.0 x 104 M of I3 to form, and get the rate by dividing the change in concentration (=6.0x104 M) by that time. After this, the reaction then continues. What happens to the rate? Explain your answer. 8. Why do you think we say that you should stop timing at "the first appearance of blue color"? (Think about the consequences if some people stopped at the first appearance, and others waited until the flask was totally blue.)

3. Why is it more instructive in detemining reaction order, to compare the rate of Expt 4 to Expt 3 rather than
comparing Expt 3 to Expt 5?
4. Which experiment(s) had the greatest rate? Why was this the greatest rate? Which had the smallest rate?
Why was this the smallest rate? Can you make a general statement about what rate depends on from the
answers to this question?
5. Compare the value of k (the rate constant) for each of the experiments. Is it similar, the same, differet?
It that what you expected? Why is it called a constant?
6. What are the units for the rate constant, k, in this reaction?
Are rate constant units always the same for every different reaction? Explain.
7. It was mentioned in the handout that what we measure in this experiment is the (average) initial rate of the
reaction. We measure the time it takes for the first 6.0 x 104 M of I3 to form, and get the rate by dividing
the change in concentration (=6.0x104 M) by that time. After this, the reaction then continues. What
happens to the rate? Explain your answer.
8. Why do you think we say that you should stop timing at "the first appearance of blue color"? (Think about
the consequences if some people stopped at the first appearance, and others waited until the flask was totally
blue.)
9. Look at Table 1, where you recorded the data for times of each experiment. Take experiment 1. Look at the
times for that experiment. What are the typical fluctuations in the times? In other words, are the different
time measurements for this experiment within 2 seconds of each other? 5? 10? More? Less? How many
seconds? Do this for experiment 2 as well. Think of this range of seconds as the "error" in the time
measurement for each experiment. Now answer this question... do you think that if you added or subtracted
this "error" in the times from the average times for each experiment that it would alter your conclusion about
the reaction order? Please give this some thought. What does this tell you about the reliability of your
reaction order choices?
