Asked by Krissy
The following three step mechanism has been proposed for the oxidation of iodide ion by peroxide:
H2o2 + I^- ----> HOI + OH^- Slow
OH^- + H^+ ----> H2O Fast
HOI + H^+ + I^+ ---> I2 + H2O Fast
A. What is the overall reaction described by this mechanism?
B. What is the differential (basic) rate law predicted by this mechanism?

HOI(aq) + H+ (aq)+ I-(aq) → I2(aq)+ H2O(l)
