The decomposition of hydrogen 2 peroxide is catalyzed by iodide ion. The reaction mechanism is thought to be H,O2(aq) + l(aq) → H,0(I) + 10 (aq) 10(aq) + H,O2(aq) → H,0(I) + O2(g) + I'(aq) At 25°C, the first step is slow relative to the second step. What is the rate law predicted by the reaction mechanism? Is there a reaction intermediate?

When designing a consumer product, it is desirable for it to have a two-year shelf life. Often this means that the active ingredient in the product should not decrease by more than 5% in two years. If the reaction is first order, and the rate constant is: k = 2.56 × 10-2 yr 1, determine the half-life of an active ingredient that has a shelf life of 2.00 years. The half-life of an active ingredient is i yr.
