a. What is the order of the reaction with respect to A?


b. What is the order of the reaction with respect to B?


c. Use your conclusions in parts (a) and (b) to write a dif ferential equation for the appearance of C.


d. What is the rate coefficient k for the reaction? Do not omit the units of k.


e. Give a possible mechanism for the reaction and discuss in words, or give equations, to show how the mecha nism is consistent with the experiment.
