The following elementary steps are determined to be the mechanism of a given reaction:
The following elementary steps are determined to be the mechanism of a given reaction: Step 1 (slow): A+ B rightarrow’C + D Step 2 (fast): C rightarrow E Step 3 (fast): E + A rightarrow 3B + F a. What is the overall reaction? A + B rightarrow C + D 2A + B + 2C + E rightarrow 3B + C + D + E + F 2A rightarrow 2B + D + F A + B + C rightarrow B + D + E + F A + B rightarrow 3B + F b. Which species is/are intermediate(s)? (If more than one species are intermediates, enter them separated by a single space.) c. What is the rate law for step 1 of this mechanism? (Do not use spaces in your answer. For zero order, don’t include the reactant: for first order, don’t include the order.) rate = d. What is the rate law for step 3 of this mechanism? (Do not use spaces in your answer For zero order, don’t include the reactant, for first order, don’t include the order) rate = e. What is the molecularity of step 1? f What is the rate law for the overall reaction?(Do not use spaces in your answer. For zero order, don’t include the reactant, for first order, don’t include the order.) rate =
