Question

The following mechanism has been proposed for the reaction between nitrogen monoxide and oxygen in the gas phase.

.....step 1.....fast:......2 NO -----> <----------- N2O2

.....step 2.....slow:....N2O2 + O2 ----> 2 NO2

(A)   What is the equation for the overall reaction? Use the smallest integer coefficients possible. If a box is not needed, leave it blank.

___________ + __________ ---> _________ + ____________

(B)   Which species acts as a catalyst? Enter formula. If none, leave box blank:    



(C)   Which species acts as a reaction intermediate? Enter formula. If none, leave box blank:    



(D)   Complete the rate law for the overall reaction that is consistent with this mechanism.
Use the form k[A]m[B]n, where "1" is understood (so don't write it if it's a "1") for m, n, etc.

Rate =   ___________
