(a). Derive the overall kinetic expressions for the four combinations of the two possible initiation steps (1 or 1a) and the termination steps (5 or 6).
(b) Compare the overall rate constants at T = 873 K with the experimental value of 8.4 × 10-4 s-1.
(c) Show that the ratio of the rates of reaction 5 and 6 is given by
