A reaction mechanism is defined as the sequence of reaction steps that define the pathway from reactants to products. Each step in a mechanism is an elementary reaction, which describes a single molecular event of usually one or two molecules interacting. The rate law for an overall reaction is the rate law for the slowest step in the mechanism, which is directly related to the stoichiometric coefficients of the reactants. The exception to this rule occurs when the slowest step...

The iodide-catalyzed decomposition of hydrogen peroxide is thought to proceed by a four-step mechanism: H2O2(aq) + I-(aq) --> HOI(aq) + OH-(aq) (slow) HOI(aq) + OH-(aq) --> H2O(l) + OI-(aq) OI-(aq) + H2O2(aq) --> HOOI(aq) + OH-(aq) HOOI(aq) + OH-(aq) --> H2O(l) + O2(g) + I-(aq) (a) If the first step of this mechanism is rate-determining (slow), choose the correct rate law for the overall process. oRate = k [H2O2]2 oRate = k [I-] [H2O2] oRate = k [H2O2] [H2O2] oRate...
