3. The following reaction:
A' (a) + B (ag + C (an)→ G* (ae) +2 H )
AH = -250 kJ
There are two proposed mechanism:
Mechanism 1
A' () + B aa)
AB' a) + D (a)
Step 1
AB" (a)
(fast)
+ E (a) + Hm
→ G' sae) + H ) + D² (n)
Step 2
(slow)
Step 3
E (agi+ C (a)
(fast)
Mechanism 2:
Step 1
AB' (a)
A' (an) + B (ag)
AB' (a) + C ja)
(fast)
Step 2
+ G' (a) + 2 H()
(slow)
The reactions was determined to have the following rate law: r= k[A'][B]
a) Which of the two proposed mechanisms is valid? Explain.
b) List any reaction intermediates:
catalysts:
c) What is a rate determining step?
d) If the activation energy for the overall forward reaction is 150 kJ, sketch the potential energy
diagram for the above reaction; showing the overall reaction, the reaction mechanism, labelling the
AHu, AHy, Eapu, Eag, reaction intermediates, and activated complex.
