Explanation:
The study of the structure, properties, composition, reactions, and preparation of carbon-containing compounds
Liquid is the form of matter that does not have definite shape and is not easy to compress.
I believe the answer to this is A.
Answer:
The steps with correct mechanism are given below:
C
1) CH₄(g) + Cl(g) → CH₃(g) + HCl(g) : This is a slow step.
The rate is given as: R1 = k₁[CH₄][Cl]
2) CH₃(g) + Cl₂(g) → CH₃Cl(g) + Cl(g): This is a fast step.
The rate is given as: Rate = k₂[CH₃][Cl₂]
∴ CH₄(g) + Cl₂(g) → CH₃Cl(g) + HCl(g)
Here, the slowest step will be the rate-determining step.
