Consider the gas-phase reaction: H2(g) + I2(g) → 2 HI(g) The reaction was experimentally determined to be first order in H2 and first order in I2. Consider the proposed mechanisms. Proposed mechanism I: H2(g) + I2(g) → 2 HI(g) Single step Proposed mechanism II: I2(g) Δk1k-12 I(g) Fast H2( g) + 2 I( g) → k22 HI( g) Slow b. What kind of experimental evidence might lead you to favor mechanism II over mechanism I?

Phosgene (Cl2CO), a poison gas used in World War I, is formed
by the reaction of Cl2 and CO. The proposed mechanism for the
reaction is:
Cl2Δ2 Cl (fast, equilibrium)
Cl + COΔClCO (fast, equilibrium)
ClCO + Cl2¡Cl2CO + Cl (slow)
검증된 단계별 안내1
Identify the overall reaction by summing up the elementary steps in the proposed mechanism.
Determine the rate-determining step, which is the slowest step in the mechanism.
Write the rate law based on the rate-determining step, using the concentrations of the reactants involved in that step.
Since the rate-determining step involves intermediates, express the concentration of the intermediate in terms of the reactants using the fast equilibrium steps.
Substitute the expression for the intermediate back into the rate law to obtain the rate law in terms of the initial reactants.

Reaction Mechanism
A reaction mechanism is a step-by-step description of the process by which reactants are converted into products. It outlines the individual elementary steps involved, including the formation and consumption of intermediates. Understanding the mechanism helps in predicting the rate of reaction and the effect of various conditions on the reaction's progress.

Reaction Mechanism Overview
Equilibrium
Equilibrium in a chemical reaction refers to the state where the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal, resulting in constant concentrations of reactants and products. In the context of the proposed mechanism, the fast steps are at equilibrium, meaning they can be represented by equilibrium constants, which influence the overall reaction dynamics.

Rate-Determining Step
The rate-determining step (RDS) is the slowest step in a reaction mechanism that controls the overall reaction rate. In the provided mechanism, the last step is identified as the slow step, indicating that it has the highest activation energy and thus dictates how quickly the reaction proceeds. Understanding the RDS is crucial for optimizing reaction conditions and improving yields.
