Kinetics of Oxidation of Ferrocyanide by lodate Ion
In the presence of vast excess of ferrocyanide, over the pH range 1.76–2.65, the reaction between iodate and ferrocyanide ions follows the rate law[Formula: see text]where ka and kb have values of 1.97 × 103 M−2 min−1 and 4.08 × 105 M−3 min−1, respectively, at an ionic strength of 1.18 M and a temperature of 25.0 ± 0.1 °C. K1 is the formation constant of monoprotonated ferrocyanide. The "overall activation energy" of the reaction was found to be 15.8 kcal/mol. Rate-determining steps consistent with the kinetics have been proposed.
