Define the rate law for the reaction

Reference no: EM13248340

The rate law for the reaction, 2NO(g) + O2(g) -- 2NO2(g), is found to be: rate of reaction=k[NO]2[O2]2 (PLEASE note that the 2's after the concentrations are powers, so we have NO to the power of 2 and O2 to the power of 2). The first, fast step is

2NO(g) -- N2O2 (g) (note: this arrow is also in reverse)

Which best represents the rate equation for the rate-determining step of this reaction?

Chose from these answer choices:

A) rate of reaction = k1 [NO]

B) rate of reaction = k2 [N2O2]

C) rate of reaction = k3 [N2O2][O2]

D) rate of reaction = k3 [NO2][O2]
