What are intermediates?
Think about what happens between reactants and products.
What role does the rate-determining step play?
It’s like the bottleneck in a traffic jam.
What are intermediates in a chemical reaction?
They are like temporary appearances in a process.
True or False: Intermediates appear in the final balanced equation of a reaction.
Think about their temporary nature during the reaction.
Consider a reaction A → B involves an intermediate C that forms from A. If C is unstable and quickly converts to B, how would this behavior affect the reaction rate and kinetics?
Focus on how reactants, intermediates, and products are interrelated.
What implications do intermediates have on the mechanism of catalyzed reactions compared to uncatalyzed reactions?
Think about how catalysts shift energy barriers.
