I am eating an M & M cookie ice cream sandwich.  It rocks...

I am also stuck on a Chem 1310 lab right now.  It seems I'm required to find the rate expression of iron (III) ions and iodide ions, but I can't figure out their initial concentrations. I know the initial molarities of each solution I mix together before actually mixing them, and the volumes of each solution I put in; but apparently, I can't figure out what "initial" value the lab instructions are referring to or what it might be.  But I have an idea...

I'll leave you with some lyrics from Three Libras by A Perfect Circle...

Threw you the obvious, and you flew
With it on your back, a name in your recollection,
Thrown down among a million same.
Difficult not to feel a little bit disappointed
And passed over
When I've looked right through it all
To see you naked and oblivious
And you don't see me.
But I threw you the obvious
Just to see if there's more behind the eyes
Of a fallen angel,
The eyes of a tragedy.
Here I am expecting just a little bit
Too much from the wounded.
But I see, see through it all,
See through, and see you.
So I threw you the obvious
To see what occurs
Behind the eyes of a fallen angel,
Eyes of a tragedy.
O well. Apparently nothing.
You don't see me.
You don't see me at all.

What do you think?
