Chlorine dioxide, ClO2, si a reddish-yellow gas that is soluble in water. In basic solution it gives ClO3- and ClO2- ions. 2ClO2(aq) + 2OH-(aq) ClO3-(aq) + ClO2- (aq) + H2O. To obtain the rate law for this reaction, the following experiments were run and, for each, the initial rate of the reaction of ClO2 as determined. Obtain the rate law and the value of the rate constant.
