Slow vs Fast reaction

Postby hannah_flagg_3F » Wed Feb 22, 2017 6:04 pm

When given the steps with chemical equations, how can you tell which one is the fast one and which one is the slow one?

I think usually we should be given some sort of information for us to determine which is the slow or fast step; whether they tell us straight up that one is fast the other slow or through the k's and the larger one is the faster step.
