Chapter 7, Problem 7C.1BST
(a)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The molecularity of the given reaction has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The elementary reactions are categorized according to their molecularity. The term molecularity is referred to the number of reacting species which can be molecules, ions or atoms in an elementary reaction. If there is only one reactant molecule in an elementary reaction then its molecularity is equal to one and reaction is said to be unimolecular. If there are two reactant molecules in an elementary reaction then its molecularity is equal to two and reaction is said to be bimolecular.
(b)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The molecularity of the given reaction has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Same as part (a).
