The mechanism below is proposed for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide: (1) 2H2O2(aq) → O(aq) + 2OH(aq) + H2O (l) (2) O(aq) + OH(aq) → O2(g) + H (aq) (3) H(aq) + OH(aq) → H2O(l) (a) Write the balanced equation for the overall reaction. Balanced equation = [A]H2O2(aq) → [B]H2O(l) + [C]O2(g) (b) Determine the molecularity of each step. Step 1 is [D] Step 2 is [E] Step 3 is [F]

A possible mechanism for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide is $$ \begin{array}{c}{\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{2} \longrightarrow 2 \mathrm{OH}} \\ {\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{2}+\mathrm{OH} \longrightarrow \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}+\mathrm{HO}_{2}} \\ {\mathrm{HO}_{2}+\mathrm{OH} \longrightarrow \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}+\mathrm{O}_{2}}\end{array} $$ Using your results from Exercise $39,$ specify which step is the rate-determining step. What is the overall balanced equation for the reaction?
