An increase in the concentration of reaction products can affect the rate of the reaction between hydrogen peroxide H2O2 and potassium iodide KI according to Le Chatelier's principle. This principle states that if a system at equilibrium is subjected to a change in concentration, temperature, or pressure, the system will adjust itself to counteract the change and restore a new equilibrium.The reaction between hydrogen peroxide and potassium iodide can be represented as follows:H2O2 aq + 2 KI aq 2 H2O l + 2 KI aq + I2 s In this reaction, hydrogen peroxide reacts with potassium iodide to produce water, potassium iodide, and iodine. When the concentration of the reaction products H2O, KI, and I2 increases, the system will try to counteract this change by shifting the equilibrium position to favor the reverse reaction, which consumes the products and forms more reactants H2O2 and KI .This shift in equilibrium will result in a decrease in the rate of the forward reaction the reaction between H2O2 and KI , as the system tries to restore equilibrium by consuming the excess products. Consequently, the rate of the reaction between hydrogen peroxide and potassium iodide will decrease when the concentration of the reaction products increases.The underlying mechanism behind this effect is related to the collision theory, which states that the rate of a reaction depends on the frequency and energy of collisions between reactant molecules. When the concentration of reaction products increases, the frequency of collisions between the reactant molecules H2O2 and KI decreases, as there are fewer reactant molecules available for collisions. This leads to a decrease in the rate of the reaction.
