Question

A reaction is studied and found to proceed in the following two elementary steps:

A + B C + Q

Q + A D + B

What is the intermediate for the reaction?

Q

A

B

D

C

2A B + C

The above reaction is studied and found to proceed in the following two elementary steps:

A Q

Q + A B + C

If the second step is the rate determining step (slow step), what is the rate law for the overall reaction?

rate = k

rate = k[A]2

rate = k[A]

rate = k[A]/[B][Q]

2A B + C

The above reaction is studied and found to proceed in the following two elementary steps:

A B + Q

Q + A C

If the first step is the rate determining step (slow step), what is the rate law for the overall reaction?

rate = k[A]2

rate = k[A]

rate = k[A]/[B][Q]

rate = k

Q

A

B

D

C

Explanation / Answer

1) intermediate for the reaction is "Q". (because Q only converted into products but not "C":)

2) rate = k[A]2

3) rate = k[A]
