In the experiment studying the reaction between iodide ions and persulfate ions, the time elapsed from the moment of mixing the two reactant solutions until the appearance of a blue colour is recorded as the reaction time. (T/F)
False.
In the experiment studying the reaction between iodide ions and persulfate ions, the time elapsed from the moment of mixing the two reactant solutions until the appearance of a blue color is typically not recorded as the reaction time. Instead, the time taken for a visual change, such as the appearance of a precipitate or a color change, is usually recorded as the reaction time.
