Make a sketch with your mouse to show how a Na+ ion stays in solution after it is removed from the crystal lattice structure. Be sure to show the charge on sodium, and indicate the partial charges on water molecules with - and + symbols.

Consider the following multistep reaction: a b→ab(slow) a ab→a2b(fast)−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−− 2a b→a2b(overall) based on this mechanism, determine the rate law for the overall reaction. express your answer in standard masteringchemistry format. for example, if the rate law is k[a]3[b]2 type k*[a]^3*[b]^2
