In the treatment of the H2 + Br2 chain reaction, the following elementary reactions were not considered: (I) H2 + M → 2H + M; (II) Br + HBr → H + Br2; (III) H + Br + M → HBr + M. Use qualitative reasoning involving activation energies and concentrations to explain why the rate of each of these reactions is negligible compared with the rates of those in (16.88).
