Chapter 6.3, Problem 3P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

It is to be determined whether the two-step sequence depicted is consistent with the second-order kinetic behavior for the hydrolysis of methyl bromide.

Concept Introduction:

For a reaction that involves a series of steps, the slowest step determines the kinetic behavior. This step is called the rate determining step.

The order of a reaction is determined by the number of molecules involved in the rate determining step.

*part B please* Estimate the instantaneous rate of dimerization at 3200 s from a graph of time versus [C4H6]. What are the units of this rate?
This is the structure of xylan given, is the mechanism still the same (would there be two hydrolysis steps)?
