The discussion above introduces the problems and methods associated with collecting rate data and with finding an empirical rate law that fits experimental concentration-versus-time data. We turn now to finding the rate laws that are consistent with a particular proposed mechanism.

This is the case if the intermediate can decompose to reform reactants with a significant probability as well as moving on to form products. In many cases, this will lead to a pre-equilibrium condition in which the equilibrium approximation can be applied.

By analyzing mechanisms, one can predict rate laws and gain insights into reaction pathways. The example given shows how different mechanisms imply different orders of reaction, which cannot confirm a specific mechanism alone.

It covers simple unimolecular conversions, reversible reactions, catalyzed reactions, reactions with intermediates, and reactions with competing pathways. For each mechanism, equations for the rate of change of concentrations are provided, explaining how they lead to specific concentration profiles over time.
