a.
Based on the above data what is the rate law expression?
b. Solve for the value of k (make sure to include proper units)
2. The proposed reaction mechanism is as follows:
i.
ii.
BrО¸¯ (aq) + H+ (aq) → HBrO3 (aq)
HBrO³ (aq) + H* (aq) → H₂BrO3* (aq)
iii.
H₂BrO³* (aq) + Br¯ (aq) → Br₂O₂ (aq) + H2O (l)
[Fast]
[Medium]
[Slow]
iv.
Br₂O₂ (aq) + 4H*(aq) + 4Br(aq) → 3Br₂ (l) + H2O (l)
[Fast]
