For a reaction NO ₂+ CO CO ₂+ NO the possible elementary steps (below 500 ~K ) are Step 1: NO ₂+ NO ₂ Slow NO + NO ₃ Step 2: NO ₃+ CO Fast CO ₂+ NO ₂ It's rate expression will be
Options
- Arate =k [ NO ₂ ][ CO ]
- Brate =k [ CO ₂ ][ NO ]
- Crate =k [ NO ₂ ]^2
- Drate =k[ NO ] [ NO ₃ ]
Correct answer
C. rate =k [ NO ₂ ]^2
Step-by-step solution
For a reaction aligned & m X+n Y Z & rate =k[X]^m[Y]^n aligned Rate of reaction is the slower step of the reaction. NO ₂+ NO ₂ Slow NO + NO ₃ Rate =k [ NO ₂ ]^2 .
