117. Phosgene (CICO), a poison gas used in World War I, is formed by the reaction of Clz and CO. The proposed mechanism for the reaction is: CI, 22 cl (fast, equilibrium) Cl + CO 2 CICO (fast, equilibrium) CICO + Cl2 – C1,CO + Cl (slow) What rate law is consistent with this mechanism?

77. Consider this three-step mechanism for a reaction: Cl2(8) 201(8) Fast Cl(8) + CHCl3(8) + HCl(9) + CC13(8) Slow CI(g) + CC13(8) T CC14(8) Fast a. What is the overall reaction? b. Identify the intermediates in the mechanism. c. What is the predicted rate law?

The following mechanism has been proposed for the gas-phase reaction of chloroform (CHCl3) and chlorine: 1) Cl2 â 2 Cl (fast, reversible) 2) Cl + CHCl3 â HCl + CCl3 (slow) 3) Cl + CCl3 â CCl4 (fast) What rate law does this mechanism predict? Choose from the list below and enter the letters for all the terms needed in the rate law. (So for a rate law of k[Cl2] enter AC, and for a rate law of k[Cl2][CHCl3] enter ACE.)
