The iodide ion reacts with hypochlorite ion (the active ingredient in chlorine bleaches) in the following way: OCI + Iˉ --†’ OIˉ + CIˉ. This rapid reaction gives the following rate data:

(a) Write the rate law for this reaction.
(b) Calculate the rate constant with proper units.
(c) Calculate the rate when [OCIˉ] = 2.0 × 10-3 M and [Iˉ] = 5.0 × 10-4 M?
