The mechanism of a reaction is defined as: Select one: 1. The collection of individual kinetic processes or elementary steps involved in the transformation of reactants into products. 2. The collection of the rate determining steps of the reaction. 3. The elementary step with a reactive intermediate that is present at low and constant concentration throughout (most of) the course of the reaction. 4. None of the other answers. 5. The rate determining step of the reaction.

Explain what is meant by the average rate of a reaction.
Why awe elementary reactions involving three or more reactants very uncommon?
The type of rate law for a reaction, either the differential rate law or the integrated rate law, is usually determined by which data is easiest to collect. Explain.
Based on the diagram in Exercise 12.83, which of the reactions has the fastest rate? Which has the slowest rate?
If a textbook defined a catalyst as "a substance that increases the rate of a reaction," would that definition be adequate?
