    The reaction follows the mechanism \[A+BAB\] (fast) \[AB+B\xrightarrow{{{k}_{2}}}A+{{B}_{2}}\] (slow) then rate law is

    A)  \[r=k[A]\,[B]\]     

    B)  \[r=k[AB]\,[B]\]

    C)  \[r=[A]\,{{[B]}^{2}}\]   

    D)  \[r=k{{[A]}^{2}}\,[B]\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Mechanism \[A+BAB\] (fast) \[AB+BA+{{B}_{2}}\] (slow) rate law \[{{k}_{2}}[AB][B]\] For fast reaction (steady states step) \[{{k}_{1}}[A][B]={{k}_{-1}}[AB]\] \[[AB]=\frac{{{k}_{1}}[A][B]}{{{k}_{-1}}}\] The value of \[[AB]\] put into rate law rate law \[=\frac{{{k}_{2}}{{k}_{1}}}{{{k}_{-1}}}[A]{{[B]}^{2}}\] \[=k[A]{{[B]}^{2}}\]
