Question

For the overall reaction 2A + B ? C Which of the following mechanisms is/are consistent with a rate equation of rate = k[A]²[B]?

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The mechanisms in both options A and D are consistent with the given rate equation. In mechanism A, the slow step involves I and A, leading to the rate law rate = k[A]^2[B]. In mechanism D, the slow step involves I and B, also leading to the rate law rate = k[A]^2[B].
