One reaction that destroys O3 molecules in the stratosphere is NO + O3 → NO2 + O2 When this reaction was studied in the laboratory, it was found to be first order with respect to both NO and O3, with a rate constant of 1.9 x 104 L mol-1s-1. If [NO] = 1.2 x 10-5 mol L-1 and [O3] = 2.0 x 10-5, what is the rate of this reaction?
