(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The chemical equation, molecularity and structure for activated complex has to be given.

The given rate law is,

  ${\text{Rate=k}}_{\text{r}}\left[{\text{CH}}_{\text{3}}\text{CHO}\right]$ (Products are ${\text{CH}}_{\text{3}}$ and $\text{CHO}$).

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The chemical equation, molecularity and structure for activated complex has to be given.

The given rate law is,

  ${\text{Rate=k}}_{\text{r}}{\left[\text{I}\right]}^{\text{2}}\left[\text{Ar}\right]$ (Products are ${\text{I}}_{\text{2}}$ and $\text{Ar}$).

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The chemical equation, molecularity and structure for activated complex has to be given.

The given rate law is,

  ${\text{Rate=k}}_{\text{r}}\left[{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}\right]\left[\text{NO}\right]$ (Products are ${\text{NO}}_{\text{2}}$ and $\text{O}$).
