Q. For the following chemical equation, which of the following is correct? 2H2S + O2 → 2S + 2H2O


The reaction is third-order overall.
The reaction is second-order overall.
The rate law is rate = k[H2S]2[O2].
The rate law cannot be determined from the given information.
The rate law is rate = k[H2S][O2].
