The complete mechanism for a reaction is considered to occur in two steps, one of which is slow and the other fast: A + B → C + D (slow) and A + C → E + F (fast). What is the rate law predicted by this mechanism?

Step 1
Let's call the rate constant for this step k1. The rate law for this step is: Rate1 = k1[A][B] Show more…

The complete mechanism for a reaction is considered to occur in two steps, one of which is slow and the other fast: D + C → B + E slow A + B → D + F fast What is the net chemical equation predicted by this mechanism?

A reaction mechanism has the following proposed elementary steps: Step 1: A ⇌ B + C Step 2: A + B → D Step 3: 2 A + D → C + E If Step 2 is the rate-limiting step, what would the proposed rate law for this mechanism be?
