Chapter 16.7, Problem 16.1P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The overall reaction and the rate law for each step has to be written.

Concept introduction:

Reaction: Substances which are mutually involved each other in a chemical process and changed into different substances.

Mechanism of a reaction: The representation of step by step process involved in the chemical process is said to be mechanism of a chemical reaction.

Elementary step: The first step in a reaction mechanism is said to be elementary step.

Intermediate: Sometimes, in between the reaction some separable amount and useful amount of substances are formed during the reaction and which are said to be intermediates

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The role of X and XO has to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Reaction: Substances which are mutually involved each other in a chemical process and changed into different substances.

Mechanism of a reaction: The representation of step by step process involved in the chemical process is said to be mechanism of a chemical reaction.

Elementary step: The first step in a reaction mechanism is said to be elementary step.

Rate determining step of a reaction: The speed or rate at which the overall the total reaction done and which is slowest step of the chemical reaction.
