Post by: vikingblood on Oct 29, 2023
The gas phase reaction of nitrogen dioxide and carbon monoxide was found  experimentally to be second-order with respect to NO2, and zero-order with respect to CO below 25°C.
         NO2 + CO → NO + CO2
Which one of the following mechanisms is consistent with the observed reaction order?

▸ NO2 + 2CO N + 2CO2     fast
N + NO2→ 2NO                  slow

▸ NO2 + 2CO → N + 2CO2     slow
N + NO2→ 2NO                 fast

▸ NO2 + NO2  NO3 + NO     fast
NO3 + CO → NO2 + CO2      slow

▸ NO2 + NO2  NO3 + NO     slow
NO3 + CO → NO2 + CO2        fast
