(b) rate = K [A] [B] 2

Explanation: rate = K [A] [B] 2

since the rate of a given reaction is first-order wrt A reactant and second-order wrt B reactant.
order of the reaction is the sum of powers of each reactant in rate law expression.
so, the order of reaction = 1+2 = 3 (a chemical reaction in which the rate of reaction is proportional to the concentration of each
of three reacting molecules).

On integrating, -[R]t = kt + c
If t = 0, [R]t = [R]0
∴ -[R]t = kt -[R]0
[R]t = [R]0 - kt

(b) The Molecularity of the slowest step of a complex reaction can never be the same as the order of the reaction.
Explanation: The slowest step of a complex reaction is always an elementary reaction and the slowest step is the rate-
determining step. The rate law depends on stoichiometric coefficients of the slowest step. Hence, the molecularity of the
slowest step of a complex reaction can never be the same as the order of the reaction.
