5) The proposed mechanism for the reaction in question 2 is as follows: NO + NO N₂O₂ (equal and fast) a. ka C. NzOz + Hz > H2O + N2O N₂O + H₂ → N₂ + H₂O (slow) (fast) Which is the rate determining step? b. Identify any intermediates in the reaction. Sum together the three steps to verify you get the same reaction from question 2. d. Determine the rate law using the mechanism above. Remember, the rate law cannot be written with intermediates.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Answer:

Power of concentration term of a reactant in the rate law is the order of reaction with respect to that reactant and overal order of reaction will be the sum of the powers of all concentration terms.
