Question

Consider the following proposed mechanism for the reaction:

2 NO2Cl (g) → 2 NO2 (g) + Cl2 (g)

step 1 (slow): NO2Cl (g) → NO2 (g) + Cl (g)

step 2 (fast): Cl (g) + NO2Cl (g) → NO2 (g) + Cl2 (g)

What is the rate law consistent with this mechanism?

 

 

rate = k[NO2][Cl2]

 

rate = k[NO2Cl]

 

rate = k[NO2Cl]2

 

rate = k[NO2Cl]2[Cl]

 

rate = k[NO2Cl][Cl
