Textbook Question
Chapter 14, Problem 49PS
Ozone, O3, in the Earth’s upper atmosphere decomposes according to the equation
2 O3(g) → 3 O2(g)
The mechanism of the reaction is thought to proceed through an initial fast, reversible step followed by a slow, second step.
Step 1: Fast, reversible
O3(g) ⇄ O2(g) + O(g)
Step 2: Slow
O3(g) + O(g) → 2 O2(g)
- (a) Which of the steps is rate-determining?
- (b) Write the rate equation for the rate-determining step
