1. Bromobutane reacts with water to form 1-butanol according to the following equation. C4?H9?Br(aq)+2H2?O(l)?C4?H9?OH(aq)+H3?O+(aq)+Br?(aq) The following is a proposed mechanism for the reaction. C4?H9?Br(aq)?C4?H9+?(aq)+Br?(aq)C4?H9?+(aq)+H2?O(l)?C4?H9?OH2?+(aq)C4?H9?OH2?+(aq)+H2?O(h)?C4?H9?OH(aq)+H3?O+(aq)? slow fast fast ? Determine the overall rate law for this proposed mechanism. (Rate expressions take the general form: rate =k?[A]a,[B]b.)
