The fastest step in the reaction mechanism is called rate determining step”. Check whether this statement is true or false ?

The following mechanism has been proposed for the reaction of (NO) with (Br)_(2) to form NOBr . (NO)(g)+(Br)_(2)(g) harr (NOBr)_(2)(g). NOBr2 (g) + NO (g) = 2NOBr (g) . If the 2nd step is the rate determining step , the order of the reaction with respect to (NO)(g) is

Consider the reaction. (NO)_(2)+(CO) rarr (NO)+(CO)_(2) Answer the following questions. a) Write down the 2 steps through which the reaction takes place? b) Find out the slowest step? c) Which is the rate determining step? d) Find out the order of the reaction?

The increasing order of rate of Cannizzaro reaction for the following compounds is:

Formaldehyde gives Cannizzaro reaction while acetaldehyde does not. Why?

In the Cannizzaro reaction 2 Ph+CHO overset(overset(Θ)OH) rarr Ph-CH_2 OH+PhCOO the slowest step is : the attack of -OH at the carbonyl group, the transfer of hydride ion to the carboxylic acid, the abstraction of proton from the carboxylic acid, the deprotonation of the Ph CH_2 OH

Compound (A) given below can undergo Cannizzaro reaction itself and crossed Cannizzaro, reaction with HCHO. It is because of:
