Question
a) The reaction of NO2 has been studied as a function of temperature. For the following decomposition
reactions, the rate constant is 2.7 × 10-2M-'s-1 at 227 °C and 2.4 x 10-1M-1s-1 at 305 °C.
9.
2 NO2 → 2 N0 + 02
Calculate the activation energy for this reaction.
9.
b) Nitrogen oxide converts ozone into molecular oxygen as follows:
Оз + NO -> 02 + NO2
The experimental rate law is: Rate = k[03][NO]. Show which of the following
mechanism/mechanisms are consistent with the experimental rate law.
Mechanism 1:
03 + NO → 02 + NO3
(slow)
0 + 03 → 2 02
(fast)
NO3 + NO → 2 NO2
(fast)
Mechanism 2:
032 02 + 0
(fast)
NO +0 → N02
(slow)
Mechanism 3:
03 + NO → 02 + NO2
(slow)
