The following mechanism has been proposed for the conversion of tert-butyl bromide to tert-butyl alcohol in aqueous solution: step 1 slow: (CH3)3CBr (CH3)3C+ + Br- step 2 fast: (CH3)3C+ + OH- (CH3)3COH (1) What is the equation for the overall reaction? Use the smallest integer coefficients possible. If a box is not needed, leave it blank. + + (2) Which species acts as a reaction intermediate? Enter formula. If none, leave box blank: (3) Complete the rate law for the overall reaction that is consistent with this mechanism. (Use the form k[A]m[B]n... , where '1' is understood (so don't write it) for m, n etc.) Rate =
