A mechanism for is: step 1 (slow) ; step 2 (fast) , where C is an intermediate. The rate law is

  1. Arate
  2. Brate
  3. Crate
  4. Drate

Answer: A

The rate law follows the slow step: rate . The fast second step comes after the rate-determining step and does not appear; the overall stoichiometric coefficients ( and ) are not the orders here.
