The reason as to why the stepwise process will be slower than the concerted process for
Concept introduction:
A concerted mechanism is the one in which all the bond breaking and bond formation processes takes place in a single step for a reaction.
A stepwise mechanism is the one in which bond breaking and bond formation take place in two different steps.
