Question
A hypothetical reaction A2 + B2 -> 2AB Follows mechanism as given below: A2 ⇌ A + A.............(fast) with kf and kb A + B2 -> AB + B.............(slow) with k1 A + B -> AB.............(fast) with k2 The order of overall reaction is

Answer: C
💡 Solution & Explanation
2 r k A B & c k 2 A A A 1/2 1/2 2 A K A Thus 1/2 1/2 1/2 c 2 2 2 2 r = K.K A B = K’ A B Hence order reaction s 3/2
