step
elementary reaction
rate constant
1 NO, g) +F, (g)
NO,F (g) +F (g)
k1
2
F (g) + NO, (g) → NO,F (g)
k2
Suppose also k, « k,. That is, the first step is much slower than the second.
Write the balanced chemical
equation for the overall
chemical reaction.
Write the experimentally-
observable rate law for the
overall chemical reaction.
rate = k U
Note: your answer should not
contain the concentrations of
any intermediates.
