Answer:

The intermediates in this reaction are Cl and CCl₃.

Explanation:

  • To indicate the intermediate in this reaction, we should firstly define the intermediate.
  • The intermediate is the species that produced within the steps of the reaction and consumed in the later step/s and does not appear in the overall reaction (<em>neither reactants nor products</em>).
  • The mechanism of the reaction contains 3 steps:
  1. Cl₂ ↔ 2Cl
  2. Cl + CHCl₃ → HCl + CCl₃
  3. Cl + CCl₃ → CCl₄
  • The overall reaction is: Cl₂ + CHCl₃ → HCl + CCl₄
  • So, the intermediates in this reaction are Cl and CCl₃.
  • Thus, 2 moles of Cl is produced in the first step and consumed in the second and third steps.
  • 1 mole of CCl₃ is produced in the second step and consumed in the third step.

Imagine that you are observing an enzyme-catalyzed reaction in lab. every time you add more enzyme, the reaction rate increases
tester [92]

Enzymes catalyze the chemical reactions, they act upon the reaction substrates and speed up the reaction. Enzymes have active sites, the places where the reaction substrates interact with the enzyme bringing about the conversion of substrates to products. So, as the enzyme concentration increases the rate of reaction increases till a point where the rate is leveled off. The rate does not further increase, as the substrate might have become limiting at that point. All the available amount of substrate would have been associated with the active sites of the enzymes. So, at that point although there is enough catalyst, lack of substrate would limit the rate of reaction.
