(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reaction mechanism for the decomposition of A2 is:

    A2ka'kaA+AUkbH

Where U is unstable helix, and H is the stable form of helix, the reaction of A and B is first order in each species and the return of U to A + B is first order in U.  The reaction of U to H is first order in U.  The rate law expression has to be deduced for the rate of formation of H by assuming a pre-equilibrium.
