3. Draw a reaction energy diagram, and label the product (P), reactant (R), transition states (TS1, TS2, etc.), intermediates (INT1, INT2, etc.) and activation energies (AG+₁, AG 2, etc.) for a reaction with the following criteria: i. A three-step, endothermic reaction; ii. AG3 > 0 but AG₁ <0 and AG2 < 0; iii. AG3 > AG‡1₁ >> AG‡₂. Which species does the structure of the transition state of the rate-determining step resemble?
