Consider the reaction CI2(aq) + H2S(aq) ---> S(s) + 2H+(aq) +2Cl-(aq) The rate equation for this reaction is rate = k [CI2][H2S] Which of these mechanisms is (or are) consistent with thisrate equation?

I Cl2+H2S ---> H+ + Cl- + Cl+ HS- (slow)

Cl+ + HS- ---> H+ + Cl- + S (fast)

II H2S <----> H+ +HS- (fast equilirium)

Cl2+HS- ----> 2Cl- + H+ S (slow)

(A) I only

(B) II only

(C) Both I and II

(D) Neither I or II

Correct answer and detailed explanation please. I know nothingabout this so I need detailed explanation please.
