Answer:
Balanced chemical equation often leads to
incorrect order or rate law. e.g., the following
reaction seems to be a tenth order
reaction
This is actually a second order
reaction. Actually the reaction is complex and occurs in several steps. The
order of such reaction is determined by the slowest step in the reaction
mechanism.
Order is determined
experimentally and is confined to the dependence of observed rate of reaction
on the concentration of reactants.
