AI Generated Solution

To determine whether the given reaction can be an elementary process based on the provided rate law, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Rate Law The rate law provided is: \[ \text{Rate} = k [A][B]^{3/2} \] This indicates that the rate of the reaction depends on the concentration of reactant A raised to the power of 1 and reactant B raised to the power of \( \frac{3}{2} \). ### Step 2: Calculate the Overall Order of the Reaction ...
