The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide in aqueous solution happens very slowly.
A catalyst can be used to speed up this reaction.Objectives:Conduct a catalyzed decomposition of hydrogen
peroxide.Calculate the rate constant k for this reaction.Determine the rate law for this reaction.Calculate the activation energy for this reaction.

Procedure We will be doing 4 experiments during this
lab to determine the rate law of this reaction and the activation energy.

Solution Preparation We will be using store bought 3%(0.88M)
H2O2
We will need to make 100 mL of a 0.5 M KI solution.
How many grams of KI will we need? (molar mass of KI = 166.01 g/mol)
8.3 gIn experiment 2 we will be cutting the
concentration of our KI in half.In experiment 3 we will be cutting the
concentration of our H2O2 in half

Analysis Questions1. Using your data determine the rate law for
this reaction, and calculate the average value of k for the 3 experiments.
2. Determine the average numerical value of k for experiments.
3. The rate law should have been first order in both KI and H2O2 using this information determine the units for k.
