The formation of nitrosyl chloride is described by the following chemical equation: 2NO(g) + Cl₂ (g) → 2NOC1 (g) Suppose a two-step mechanism is proposed for this reaction, beginning with this elementary reaction: NO(g) + Cl₂ (g) → NOCI₂ (g) Suppose also that the second step of the mechanism should be bimolecular. Suggest a reasonable second step. That is, write the balanced chemical equation of a bimolecular elementary reaction that would complete the proposed mechanism. 0 ローロ X

Question
The formation of nitrosyl chloride is described by the following chemical equation:
2NO (g) + Cl₂ (g) → 2NOCI (g)
Suppose a two-step mechanism is proposed for this reaction, beginning with this elementary reaction:
NO (g) +Cl₂ (g) NOCI₂ (g)
Suppose also that the second step of the mechanism should be bimolecular.
Suggest a reasonable second step. That is, write the balanced chemical equation of a bimolecular elementary reaction that would
complete the proposed mechanism.
