2. Czarnowski and H.J. Schuhmacher (Chem. Phys. Lett. 17, 235 (1972)) suggested the
following mechanism for the thermal decomposition of F2O in the reaction 2 F20(g) → 2
F2(g) + O2(g):
1) F2O+ F2O →F+OF + F2O : ka
ko

kd
2) F+F20 → F2 + OF:
3) OF + OF → 02 + F + F :
4) F+F+ F2O→ F2 + F2O:
Use the steady-state approximation to find the rate law of this reaction.
