The reaction in which the rate equation corresponds to a stoichiometric equation, is called a/an _______________ reaction?

Correct answer: A. Elementary

  • A. Elementary
  • B. Non-elementary
  • C. Parallel
  • D. Autokinetic

Explanation

An elementary reaction occurs in a single molecular event, so its rate equation follows the stoichiometric equation directly. For non-elementary reactions, the rate law must be determined experimentally and may not match the overall stoichiometry.
