    The hypothetical reaction \[{{A}_{2}}+{{B}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}2AB\]; follows the following mechanism \[{{A}_{2}}\xrightarrow{Fast}A+A,\] \[A+{{B}_{2}}\xrightarrow{slow}AB+B,A+B\xrightarrow{Fast}AB\] The order of the overall reaction is

    A) 0                     

    B) 1    

    C) 2                                 

    D) 3/2

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] \[{{A}_{2}}+{{B}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}2AB\text{ };\] \[{{A}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}A+A\left( Fast \right);\] \[A+{{B}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}AB+B\left( Slow \right)\] Rate law \[=k\left[ A \right]\left[ {{B}_{2}} \right]\]put value of [A] from 1st reaction since A is intermediate \[\sqrt{k[{{A}_{2}}]}=A\] \[\therefore \] Rate law equation \[=k\sqrt{k[{{A}_{2}}]}[{{B}_{2}}]\] \[\therefore \,Order=\frac{1}{2}+1=\frac{3}{2}\]
