Propose a plausible mechanism for the reaction f2 + 2clo2 → 2fclo2 given that the rate law for the reaction is rate = k[f2][clo2]. click in the answer box to activate the palette. do not include states of matter.

Step 1: slow dissociation of fluorine (controlling stage):

Step 2: fast chlorine dioxide reaction with fluoride ions:

Explanation:

Hello,

The undergoing chemical reaction:

Could be attained via two steps forming the required plausible mechanism with the given reaction rate:

Step 1: slow dissociation of fluorine (controlling stage):

Step 2: fast chlorine dioxide reaction with fluoride ions:

In this case, it is necessary for the fluorine to be dissociated to promote the formation of the two molecules and its consequent simplification as the formed fluorine ions act as intermediates, thus, the overall reaction turn out into:

Best regards.

because u need two or more forms of the same element that contain equal numbers of protons but different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei to form isotopes.

so since they all have the same shape? i mean maybe because m& m and reeses are both chocolates
