Question

Choose the options below that are true.

Answer 1

Answer:

The options (A) -The rate law for a given reaction can be determined from a knowledge of the rate-determining step in that reaction's mechanism.  and (C) -The rate laws of bimolecular elementary reactions are second order overall ,is true.

Explanation:

(A) -The rate law can only be calculated from the reaction's slowest or rate-determining phase, according to the first sentence.

(B) -The second statement is not entirely right, since we cannot evaluate an accurate rate law by simply looking at the net equation. It must be decided by experimentation.

(C) -Since there are two reactants, the third statement is correct: most bimolecular reactions are second order overall.

(D)-The fourth argument is incorrect. We must track the rates of and elementary phase that is following the reaction in order to determine the rate.

Therefore , the first and third statement is true.
