6. The following data relate to the reaction of iodide and persulphate ions (S202) in aqueous NaCl solutions (molality, m) at 298 K. k/ko 1.60 1.95 2.26 2.57 m /mol kg 0.01 0.02 0.03 0.04 (a) What may be deduced about the mechanism of the reaction? (k, is the rate constant at zero ionic strength.) (b) How would you expect the rate constant to change if the NaCl were replaced by a solution of CaCl2 of the same molality?
