1
Q
Suggest two reasons why it is unlikely that this reaction could take place in one step.
A
(stoichiometry) in overall equation
Collision unlikely with more than 2 ions/species/particles
2
Q

concentration
A
no change
3
Q

A
water is in excess
OR
the concentration of H2O is very large/does not change
