Solution
(i) only one reacting species is involved in the rate determining step.
(ii) the order and the molecularity of slowest step are equal to one.
Explanation:
For any unimolecular reaction, only one reactant is involved in rate determining step and the order and molecularity of rate determining or slowest step are one.
