Kinetic experiments were carried out for the following reaction:
2 ClO$_2$(aq) + 2 OH$^-$ (aq) $\rightarrow$ ClO$_3^-$(aq) + ClO$_2^-$(aq) + H$_2$O(l)
The following data was obtained.
Exp # Initial [ClO$_2$], M Initial [OH$^-$], M Initial Rate, M/s
Exp 1 0.060 0.030 0.0248
Exp 2 0.020 0.030 0.00276
Exp 3 0.020 0.090 0.00800
a) Calculate the order of reaction with respect to ClO$_2$
b) Calculate the order of reaction with respect to OH$^-$
c) Write the rate law
d) Calculate the rate constant, $k$ (The answer must include the units of $k$)
