Some of the reagents used in this lab are easily confused, such as persulfate (S2O8) and thiosulfate (S2O3). The student inadvertently switched these reagents, adding the persulfate to beaker A and thiosulfate to beaker B. How would this affect the results? What would the student observe with respect to the mixture in beaker A?
