The hypothetical reaction `2A +Brarr C+D` is catalyzed by E as indicated in the possible mechanism below. ltbr. Step 1: `A+E hArr AE" "`(fast)
Step 2: `AE + A rarr A_(2)+E " "` (slow)
Step 3: `A_(2) +B rarr C +D " "` (fast)
Which rate law best agrees with this mechanism?
A. Rate `=k[A][B]`
B. Rate=`k[A][E]`
C. Rate `=k[A]^(2)[E]`
D. Rate `=k[A]^(2)[B]`
