Final Products of Ferrocyanide Reduction: K4[Fe(CN)4] and Sodium Thiosulfate

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on the reduction of ferrocyanide using sodium thiosulfate and water, leading to the inquiry about the final products of the reaction. The electron transfer reaction is outlined, showing the conversion of ferrocyanide ions. Participants confirm that the final products are potassium ferrocyanide (K4[Fe(CN)4]) and sodium thiosulfate (Na2S2O3). The half-reactions involved in the process are also requested for clarity. The conversation emphasizes the importance of understanding the ionic components resulting from the reaction.

Help me please to finish this reaction of the ferrocyanide reduction:
K3Fe(CN)6 + Na2S2O3 + H2O=...?

the electron transfer reaction inthis case is
2Fe(CN)3-6 + 2S2O3 = 2Fe(CN)4-6 + S4O2-6.

Wondering what are the final products of the upper reaction.

Write out the individual half reactions.
 
ferrocyanide reaction

Thanks for reply.
I think that I have already written the final products of this reaction:
2Fe(CN)4-6 and S4O2-6 - ionic parts, (K4[Fe(CN)4] and sodium thiosilfate). Hope it's right...

Thread 'Confusion regarding a chemical kinetics problem'

TL;DR Summary: cannot find out error in solution proposed. [![question with rate laws][1]][1] Now the rate law for the reaction (i.e reaction rate) can be written as: $$ R= k[N_2O_5] $$ my main question is, WHAT is this reaction equal to? what I mean here is, whether $$k[N_2O_5]= -d[N_2O_5]/dt$$ or is it $$k[N_2O_5]= -1/2 \frac{d}{dt} [N_2O_5] $$ ? The latter seems to be more apt, as the reaction rate must be -1/2 (disappearance rate of N2O5), which adheres to the stoichiometry of the...

Thread 'Prove that evolution is constant (Provide at least two arguments to support your position)'

I don't get how to argue it. i can prove: evolution is the ability to adapt, whether it's progression or regression from some point of view, so if evolution is not constant then animal generations couldn`t stay alive for a big amount of time because when climate is changing this generations die. but they dont. so evolution is constant. but its not an argument, right? how to fing arguments when i only prove it.. analytically, i guess it called that (this is indirectly related to biology, im...
