The reaction of NO and O2 produces NO2.
2 NO(g) + O2(g) ® 2 NO2(g)
The reaction is second-order with respect to NO(g) and first-order with respect to O2(g). At a given temperature, the rate constant, k, equals 6.1 ´ 103 M-2s-1. What is the rate of reaction when the initial concentrations of NO and O2 are 0.020 M and 0.015 M, respectively?
| a. 9.8 ´ 10-10 M/s |
| b. 0.027 M/s |
| c. 0.037 M/s |
| d. 1.0 M/s |
| e. 1.8 M/s |
