Q: In a reaction mechanism, what is the term for a species that is formed in one step and consumed in a subsequent step?
Solution:
An intermediate is a species that is produced in one step of a reaction mechanism and consumed in a later step.
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 others are used up.
Step 3: Recognize that a species formed in one step and then used in a later step is called an 'intermediate'.
Step 4: Conclude that intermediates are important because they help explain how the overall reaction happens.
