Consider the folowing mechanism for the oxidation of


Consider the folowing mechanism for the oxidation of bromide ions by hydrogen peroxide in aqueous acid solution.

H+ plus H2O2 = H2O+ -OH (rapid equilibrium)

H2O+ --OH + BR- = HOBr + H2O (slow)

HOBr + H+ + BR + Br2 + H2) (fast)

What is the overall reaction equation for this process?
