Consider the Reaction Free-Energy Diagram for Two Reactions That Convert

Question 10

Multiple Choice

Consider the reaction free-energy diagram for two reactions that convert reactants (R) into products (P) and select the two correct statements.
Consider the reaction free-energy diagram for two reactions that convert reactants (R)  into products (P)  and select the two correct statements.   A)  Reaction 1 is faster because it occurs in one step. B)  Reaction 2 is faster than reaction 1. C)  Both reactions occur at the same rate at a given concentration of R. D)  X is a transition state of reaction 2. E)  The rate-limiting step of reaction 2 is R ⇌ X.f.  The rate-limiting step of reaction 2 is X ⇌ P.g.  X must be a carbocation.
