KClO3 + 6FeSO4 + 3H2SO4 ® KCl + 3Fe2(SO4)3 + 3H2O
This reaction which apparently seems to be of tenth order is actually
a second order reaction This shows that this reaction takes place in
several steps Which step controls the rate of the overall reaction The
question can be answered if we go through the mechanism of reaction,
for example, chances to win the relay race competition by a team
depend upon the slowest person in the team
