This study guide covers reaction mechanisms, breaking down complex reactions into elementary steps. It explains how to identify catalysts and intermediates within a mechanism. The guide also focuses on determining the rate-determining step and using it to derive the rate law of a reaction. Finally, it provides practice questions and exam tips for applying these concepts.
