Use the References to access important values if needed for this question.
The thermal decomposition of nitryl chloride is proposed to occur by the following mechanism:
step 1
slow: NO₂CI→ NO₂ + CI
step 2
fast: CI+NO₂CI → NO₂ + Cl₂
(1) What is the equation for the overall reaction? Use the smallest integer coefficients possible. If a box is not
needed, leave it blank.

(2) Which species acts as a catalyst? Enter formula. If none, leave box blank:
(3) Which species acts as a reaction intermediate? Enter formula. If none, leave box blank:
Rate =
(4) Complete the rate law for the overall reaction that is consistent with this mechanism.
(Use the form k[A] [B]"..., where '1' is understood (so don't write it) for m, n etc.)
