Answer to Problem 86A
In a complex reaction, the slowest elementary step is used for the determination of the overall rate of a reaction but a complex reaction consisting of more than one rate-determining steps is not yet known.
Explanation of Solution
In a complex reaction, there can be two or more elementary reaction steps. The elementary steps combine to give a net complex reaction. The slowest elementary step is used for the determination of the overall rate of a reaction and it is often termed as the rate determining step of the complex reaction.
A complex reaction consisting of more than one rate-determining steps is not yet known.
Usually the slowest step is the rate determining step in a complex reaction.
