How will you determine the rate of chemical reaction ? |
|
Answer» Solution :SUBSTRATE `to` Rcagent` to ` [ INTERMEDIATE state (and /or ) Transition State ] ` to` Product Many simple steps . Each stop passes through an energy barrier , leading to the formantion of short lived intermediates or transition states . The series of simple steps which collectively represent the chemical CHANGE, from substrate to product is called as the mechanism of the reaction . The slowest STEP in the mechanism DETERMINES the overall rate of the reaction . |
