The mechanism for the reaction is given below:
$2P + Q \to S + T$
$P + Q \to R + S$ (slow)
$P + R \to T$ (fast)
The rate law expression for the reaction is:

  • A
    $r = k[P]^2[Q]$
  • B
    $r = k[P][Q]$
  • C
    $r = k[P][R]$
  • D
    $r = k[P]^2$

Consider the kinetic data given in the following table for the reaction $A + B + C \rightarrow$ Product.
Experiment No. $[A] \ (mol \ dm^{-3})$ $[B] \ (mol \ dm^{-3})$ $[C] \ (mol \ dm^{-3})$ Rate of reaction $(mol \ dm^{-3} \ s^{-1})$
$1$ $0.2$ $0.1$ $0.1$ $6.0 \times 10^{-5}$
$2$ $0.2$ $0.2$ $0.1$ $6.0 \times 10^{-5}$
$3$ $0.2$ $0.1$ $0.2$ $1.2 \times 10^{-4}$
$4$ $0.3$ $0.1$ $0.1$ $9.0 \times 10^{-5}$

The rate of the reaction for $[A]=0.15 \ mol \ dm^{-3}, [B]=0.25 \ mol \ dm^{-3}$ and $[C]=0.15 \ mol \ dm^{-3}$ is found to be $Y \times 10^{-5} \ mol \ dm^{-3} \ s^{-1}$. The value of $Y$ is . . . . . .
