A) A + 2B → P rate = k[A]2

B) A + 2B → P rate = k[A][B]

c) 2A → P rate = k[A]

D)A + B + C → P rate = k[A][C]

E) A + B → P rate = k[A][B]

Solutions

Expert Solution

If the rate law can be derived from the given reaction, then the given reaction can be said to be elementary reaction

E is elementary reaction because rate law from reaction will be

rate = k [A] [B]

which is same as given rate law

Answer: E

for A, rate law from given reaction is

rate= k [A] [B]^2 which do not match given rate law

for B, rate law from given reaction is

rate= k [A] [B]^2 which do not match given rate law

for C, rate law from given reaction is

rate= k [A]^2 which do not match given rate law

for D, rate law from given reaction is

rate= k [A] [B] [C] which do not match given rate law
