Question
![The reaction \(2A + B \rightarrow C\) has the following proposed mechanism:
- **Step 1:** \(A + B \rightleftharpoons D\) (fast equilibrium)
- **Step 2:** \(D + B \rightarrow E\) (slow)
- **Step 3:** \(E + A \rightarrow C + B\) (fast)
The rate law consistent with this mechanism is:
- \( \bigcirc \) Rate = \( k[A][B]^2 \)
- \( \bigcirc \) Rate = \( k[A]^2[B]^2 \)
- \( \bigcirc \) Rate = \( k[A][B] \)
- \( \bigcirc \) Rate = \( k[A]^2[B] \)](https://content.bartleby.com/qna-images/question/2a163f18-29bc-4cae-aa7e-1a32645d5b83/b9e83412-d574-4fee-b045-8f864b822410/no1u06b_thumbnail.jpeg)
