The reaction of hydrogen and iodine monochlride is given as L `H_(2)(g) + 2ICI(g) to 2HCl(g) + I_(2)(g)` This reaction is of first order with respect
The reaction of hydrogen and iodine monochlride is given as L
`H_(2)(g) + 2ICI(g) to 2HCl(g) + I_(2)(g)`
This reaction is of first order with respect to `H_(2)(g)` and ICI(g). The following mechanism was proposed for the reaction:
Mechanism A:
`H_(2)(g) + 2ICl(g) to HCl(g) + HI(g)`, slow
`HI(g) + ICI(g) to HCI(g) + I_(2)(g)` , fast
Which of the above mechanism (s) can be consistent with the given information about the reaction?
A. A and B both
B. neither A nor B
C. A only
D. B only
