A and B react stoichiometrically to form P . If
0.01-MA
and
10-M
B are mixed, it is found that the log of the concentration of A vs. time is a straight line. (a) What is the order of the reaction with respect to
A
? (b) Write a one-line mechanism that is consistent with the kinetics and stoichiometry. (c) According to your mechanism, what is the order of the reaction with respect to
B
?
