Question
A suggested mechanism for the decomposition of peroxide (H2O2) is
H2O2(aq) ->>> 2OH(aq)
H2O2(aq) + OH(aq)
H2O()+ HO2(g)
HO2(g) + OH(aq)) → H2O(l) + O2 (g)
->>
Based on the mechanism which statement is true?
(1) The rate law is rate = k[H202]
(2) the molecularity of the slow reaction is 4
(4) OH2 is an intermediate
(3) OH is a catalyst
