Q: In a reaction mechanism, what is an intermediate?
Solution:
An intermediate is a species that is formed during the reaction and consumed in subsequent steps, not appearing in the overall reaction.
Steps: 4
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that a reaction mechanism is a series of steps that describe how a chemical reaction occurs.
Step 2: Identify that during these steps, some substances are created and then used up.
Step 3: Recognize that an intermediate is one of these substances that is formed in the middle of the reaction.
Step 4: Note that intermediates are not present in the final result of the reaction because they are consumed in later steps.
