Question

1a.) From experiment the rate law, rate = k[NO2]2, was determined for the following reaction. NO2(g) +   CO(g)  à  NO(g)  +  CO2(g)

Propose a mechanism.
 
What are the intermediates? What is the molecularity of each step?

1b.)

Calculate the rate constant (k) at 318 K for the following reaction (Given Ea = 52.9 kJ/mol):

Mn(CO)5(CH3CN)+ + NC5H5 à Mn(CO)5(NC5H5)+ + CH3CN
