0
Step-by-step solution
The rate law for the reaction 2 NO + 2 H 2 → N 2 + 2 H 2 O is r = k H 2 m NO n The powers of the concentration terms m, n are the order with respect to hydrogen and nitric oxide respectively. r 1 = 65 . 6 m 40 . 0 n = 0 . 135 r 2 = 65 . 6 m 20 . 1 n = 0 . 033 r 3 = 38 . 6 m 65 . 6 n = 0 . 214 r 4 = 19 . 2 m 65 . 6 n = 0 . 106 r 1 r 2 = 65 . 6 m 40 . 0 n 65 . 6 m 20 . 1 n = 0 . 135 0 . 033 = 4 ⇒ 2 n = 4 ⇒ n = 2 Hence, the order with respect to NO is 2 .
