The reaction Cl2(g)+CHCl3(g)CCl4(g)+HCl(g) proceeds through the following mechanism: Cl2(g)2Cl(g)Cl(g)+CHCl3(g)HClg(g)+CO3(g)Cl(g)+CCl3(g)CCl4(g) (a) The second step of this mechanism is rate-determining (siow). What is the rate law for this reaction? Rate=k[Cl2][CHCl3]Rate=k[Cl2]2[CHCl3]Rate=k[Cl2][CHCl3]2Rate=k[Cl2]1/2[CHCl3]Rate=k[Cl2][CHCl3]1/2Rate=k[Cl2]2Rate=k[Cl2]2[CHCl3]1/2 (b) What would the rate law be if the first step of this mechanism were rate-determining? Rate=k[C2][CHCl3]Rate=k[Cl2]2[CHCl3]Rate=k[Cl2][CHCl3]2Rate=k[Cl2]1/2[CHCl3]Rate=k[Cl2][CHCl3]1/2Rate=k[Cl2]2Rate=k[Cl2]2[CHCl3]1/2Rate=k[Cl2]
