Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a reaction mechanism, what is the term for a species that is formed in one step and consumed in a subsequent step?
  • 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.
