In the sequence of reaction,
`L overset(k_(1))rarr M overset(k_(2))rarr N overset(k_(3))rarrO`
`k_(3) gt k_(2) gt k_(1)`
The rate determining step of the reaction is :

A

`A ot B `

B

`B to C`

C

`C ot D`

D

`A ot D`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

As `k_1` is lowest, hence `A overset(k_1)to `Bis slowest.
