I found a sentence in book which states the reverse step of this reaction ( I forgot what was it!) has the faster step as rate determining .
Even Rate determining step-Wikipedia states:
In chemical kinetics, the rate (or velocity) of a reaction mechanism with several steps is "OFTEN" determined by the slowest step .
which I think 'OFTEN' means not 'everytime' so,
if faster step of the reaction is rate determining. Then why it is?
