If the rate of a reaction is:

Rate = k [A] [B]

• The order of reaction with respect to both A and B is 1.

  The overall order of the reaction is 2

• The order of reaction with respect to both A and B is 1.

  The overall order of the reaction is 1

• The order of reaction with respect to both A and B is 0.

  The overall order of the reaction is 2

An elementary reaction is a reaction in which reactants are converted to products in two steps.

• True

• False

An elementary reaction has only one activation-energy peak and one activated complex.

• True

• False

An intermediate has a more stable structure and a longer lifetime than an activated complex.

• True

• False

Intermediates appear in the overall chemical equation for a reaction.

• True

• False

In a multistep chemical reaction, the fastest step will determine, or limit, the rate of the overall reaction.

• True

• False
