Question

The question in my lab asks: "Generally reactions of ions tend tobe fast. Explain why the reaction between the peroxydisulfate ionand iodide is slow. What type of reaction is this? Explain why."
So I don't really understand why the reaction is considered tobe slow. I thought it had something to do with it having to beconverted to something else before the reaction takes place but Idon't think that makes much sense. I would greatly appreciate anyinput. I also have no idea what type of reaction this is.

Explanation / Answer

   the reaction between the peroxydisulfate ion andiodide ion is slow.because due to activation energy is requiredmore for start the reaction so we use good catlyst for that.
