anonymous · Answer

which of those would you rule out?

anonymous · Answer

(B) and (A)

anonymous · Answer

i think its elementary

praxer · Answer

elementary reaction : The reactions that take place in one step are called elementary reaction. When a sequence of elementary reactions occur to give us product it is called a complex reaction.

first order reaction: Those reactions in which the rate of the reaction is directly proportional to the first power of the concentration of the reactant.

Hence, from the definition we can work out that the answer is   A. elementary reaction. :)
