What is molecularity?
Think about how many particles are interacting in one step.
Give an example of a unimolecular reaction.
Look for reactions involving a single molecule breaking down.
What type of reaction involves two molecules colliding?
Think about the prefix 'bi-' meaning two.
True or False: All reactions have a rate-determining step.
Consider how reactions progress and the concept of bottlenecks.
Design an experiment to analyze a bimolecular reaction and predict how changing the concentration of one reactant affects the rate.
Consider using the rate expression to analyze your results.
A chemical reaction follows the path A → B → C. If step A → B is the rate-determining step, how would you express the overall rate law?
Reflect on the principles of rate laws relating to the slowest step in a mechanism.
