The rate law for the reaction H₂ (g) + I₂ (g) → 2 HI (g) was determined to be rate = k [H₂] [1₂], which led to a simple single-step bimolecular mechanism where an H₂ molecule simply collided with an I₂ molecule. In the 1960s, though, different teams found spectroscopic evidence for this mechanism: (1) (2) (3) I₂ (g) →21 (g) H₂(g) + I (g) → H₂I (g) H₂I (g) + I (g) → 2 HI (g) (fast) (fast) (slow) Show that this mechanism is consistent with the rate law: rate = k [H₂] [1₂]. To do this, assign individual rate constants for ALL forward and reverse reactions in the mechanism (I'm guessing k₁, k-1, k2, k-2 and k3). Then show that the overall rate law from combining individual rate laws for the mechanism steps yields rate = (some combination of k's) [H₂] [1₂], and thus k= (some combination of k's). Remember that there should be no reaction intermediates in the rate law, only reactants. \arrow_forwardConsider the following balanced chemical equation: H2O2 (aq) + 3 r (aq) + 2 H (aq) >l (aq) + 2 H,O (I) If the concentration of iodide (la) decreases from 0.718 M to 0.426 M in the first 15 seconds, what is the rate of reaction?
