Problem- Chlorine dioxide reacts in basic water to form chlorite and chlorate according to the following chemical equation: 2CIO2(aq) + 2OH-(aq) --> (aq) + (aq) + H2O(l). If the initial rate of disappearance of chlorine dioxide is 0.230 M/s, what is the initial rate of appearance of chlorate ion under the same conditions?
I just need a general explanation of it please- Thanks!
