Pre-equilibrium Hypothesis
Summary
The
pre-equilibrium hypothesis
in
chemical kinetics
suggests that certain
intermediate steps
of a reaction reach a
quasi-steady state
before the
overall reaction
proceeds to completion. This assumption simplifies the
mathematical treatment
of
complex reactions
by allowing the use of
equilibrium constants
for these
intermediate steps
.
