QUESTION 7

  1. Given the following proposed mechanism, predict the rate law for the overall reaction.

     A2 +  2B  →   2AB (overall reaction)

     Mechanism
     A2 ⇌  2A slow
     A + B →  AB fast 
      A
    Rate = k [A2]1/2[B]
      B
    Rate = k[A2]
      C
    Rate = k[A][B]
      D
    Rate = k[A2][B]1/2
      E
    Rate = k[A2][B]
