There is an error in the rate-determining step of the following proposed mechanism.
Slow step: CH3(g) + Cl2(g) – CH3(g) + HCl(9) and the rate rule is kz = [CH][CL]
Fast step: CH3(g) + Cl2(g) → CH2Cl(g) + Cr(g) and the rate rule is kz = [CH][CL]
Overall : CH2(g) + 2Cl2(g) - CH2Cl(g) + HCl(9) + Cr (9)
Which shows the correct rate-determining step for the mechanism?
O
CH (9) + 2Cl(9) - CH2Cl(9) + HCl(9) + C(g)
CHA(9) + Cl2(g) → CH3(g) + HCl(9) and the rate rule is ki = [CH][Cl]
CH (9) + Cl2(g) → CH3CI(9) + Cr(g) and the rate rule is ka = [CH][Cl]
CH3(9) + 2Cl2(g) → CH2Cl(g) + Cr(g) and the rate rule is kz = [CH][Cl]
