Q. Assertion: Complex reaction takes place in different steps and the slowest step determines the rate of reaction.
Reason : Order and molecularity of a reaction are always equal.

Chemical Kinetics

Solution:

* In complex reactions the slowest step is the rate determining step.
* Order may or may not be equal to molecularity or of a reaction.
