Unfortunately, we cannot watch reactions occurring at the molecular level, but we can infer these\u00a0events using kinetics and other chemical methods.\r\n<h2><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">Elementary Steps<\/span><\/h2>\r\nEach event that occurs in a chemical reaction as a result of an effective collision is known as an <b>elementary step<\/b>. The total number of molecules that participate in the effective collision of an\u00a0elementary step is known as its <b>molecularity<\/b>. Molecularity can be used to classify elementary steps into three categories:\r\n\r\nUnimolecular \u2013 Only one molecule participates\r\n\r\nBimolecular \u2013 Two molecules participate\r\n\r\nTermolecular \u2013 Three molecules participate\r\n\r\nThere are only three main categories of molecularity because it is rare that more than three molecules participate simultaneously in an effective collision.\r\n<h2>Elementary Steps and Rate Laws<\/h2>\r\nA complete chemical reaction may occur in one or more elementary steps, each having its own rate law. The rate of a single elementary step can be derived directly from its stoichiometric equation, since it is an individual effective collision describing a single bond-breaking\u00a0or bond-forming event. This explains why the rate law of an overall reaction, potentially involving several steps, does not necessarily correlate to the stoichiometry of its balanced chemical equation. For example:\r\n\r\n5 Br<sup>-<\/sup>(aq) + BrO<sub>3<\/sub><sup>-<\/sup>(aq) + 6 H<sup>+<\/sup>(aq) \u2192\u00a03 Br<sub>2<\/sub>(\u2113) + 3 H<sub>2<\/sub>O(\u2113)\r\n\r\nRate = <i>k<\/i>[Br<sup>-<\/sup>][BrO<sub>3<\/sub><sup>-<\/sup>][H<sup>+<\/sup>]<sup>2<\/sup>\r\n\r\nHowever, the rate law for an elementary step is determined from its molecularity: the number of molecules involved in the single effective collision (Table 17.2 \"Elementary Steps and Their Rate Laws\"). For the following elementary step:\r\n\r\nA \u2192 B\r\n\r\nRate = <i>k<\/i>[A]\r\n\r\nThis is a unimolecular step, and as the concentration of reactant A molecules increases, the number of effective collisions also increases.\r\n\r\nTable 17.2 Elementary Steps and Their Rate Laws\r\n<table style=\"border-spacing: 0px;\" border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"0\">\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td style=\"width: 638px;\" colspan=\"3\" valign=\"top\"><\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td style=\"width: 213px;\" valign=\"top\"><b>Elementary Step<\/b><\/td>\r\n<td style=\"width: 213px;\" valign=\"top\"><b>Molecularity<\/b><\/td>\r\n<td style=\"width: 213px;\" valign=\"top\"><b>Rate Law<\/b><\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td style=\"width: 213px;\" valign=\"top\">A \u2192\u00a0B<\/td>\r\n<td style=\"width: 213px;\" valign=\"top\">Unimolecular<\/td>\r\n<td style=\"width: 213px;\" valign=\"top\">Rate = <i>k<\/i>[A]<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td style=\"width: 213px;\" valign=\"top\">2 A \u2192\u00a0C<\/td>\r\n<td style=\"width: 213px;\" valign=\"top\">Bimolecular<\/td>\r\n<td style=\"width: 213px;\" valign=\"top\">Rate = <i>k<\/i>[A]<sup>2<\/sup><\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td style=\"width: 213px;\" valign=\"top\">2 A + D \u2192\u00a0E<\/td>\r\n<td style=\"width: 213px;\" valign=\"top\">Termolecular<\/td>\r\n<td style=\"width: 213px;\" valign=\"top\">Rate = <i>k<\/i>[A]<sup>2<\/sup>[D]<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<\/tbody>\r\n<\/table>\r\n<h2>Multistep Mechanisms<\/h2>\r\nThe overall reaction process often corresponds to a series of two or more elementary steps, which must always add up to give the overall balanced chemical equation. For example, in the following elimination reaction (a type of reaction typically discussed in introductory organic chemistry courses):\r\n\r\nC<sub>4<\/sub>H<sub>9<\/sub>Br + H<sub>2<\/sub>O \u2192\u00a0C<sub>4<\/sub>H<sub>8<\/sub> + H<sub>3<\/sub>O<sup>+<\/sup> + Br<sup>-<\/sup>\r\n\r\nThis reaction process proceeds in two elementary steps and would therefore be called a two-step mechanism. In the first step, bromide leaves from the starting material to give the cation C<sub>4<\/sub>H<sub>9<\/sub><sup>+<\/sup>. In the second step, C<sub>4<\/sub>H<sub>9<\/sub><sup>+ <\/sup>reacts with water to generate the product C<sub>4<\/sub>H<sub>8 <\/sub>and H<sub>3<\/sub>O<sup>+<\/sup>.\r\n\r\n1.

A potential energy diagram for this multistep reaction can be drawn as shown in Figure 17.12 \"Multistep\u00a0Reaction\u00a0Potential\u00a0Energy\u00a0Diagram.\" Notice each step has its own activation energy, and <b>transition state<\/b> (or<b> activated complex<\/b>), which is the highest-energy transitional point in the elementary step. Transition states are very unstable (high energy) as bonds are in the process of breaking or forming, and therefore transition states cannot be isolated.
