The hypothetical reaction : $2A + B \to C + D$ is catalyzed by $E$ as indicated in the possible mechanism below -
Step-$1$ : $A + E \rightleftharpoons AE$ (fast)
Step-$2$ : $AE + A \to A_2 + E$ (slow)
Step-$3$ : $A_2 + B \to C + D$ (fast)
What rate law best agrees with this mechanism?

  • A
    $r = k[A][B]$
  • B
    $r = k[A][E]$
  • C
    $r = k[A]^2[E]$
  • D
    $r = k[A]^2[B]$
