Question 40 of 42
For the theoretical reaction: 2B → D+F a plausible 2-step reaction mechanism was determined to be
1. A+B = C+D
2. B+C → A+F(slow)
Based on this mechanism, what is the predicted rate law for the reverse of the first elementary step?
O Rate = K[B][C]
Rate = K[B]²[D]¹
O Rate = K[A][B]²[D]¹
O Rate = K[B]²
O Rate = K[A][B]
O Rate = K[C][D]
O The rate law cannot be determined.
