Question:

A mechanistic study of reaction between chloramine and sulfite has been reported (B.S. Yiin, D.M. Walker, and D.W. Margerum, Inorg. Chem., 1987, 26, 3435). Summarize the observed rate law and the proposed mechanism. Accepting the proposed mechanism, why should SO2(OH) and HSO3 display different rates of reaction? Explain why it was not possible to distinguish the reactivity of SO2(OH) from that of HSO3.
