Chapter 14.6, Problem 14.14.1PE

Practice Exercise 1
An Alternative two-step reaction mechanism has been proposed for the reaction NO2(g) + CO(g) → NO(g) + CO2(g), which was discussed on page 597:

Step 1:NO2(g) + NO2(g) → N2O4(g) (slow)
Step 2:N2O4(g) + CO(g) → NO(g) +CO2(g) +NO2(g) (fast)
Which experiment would allow you to distinguish between the two proposed mechanisms?

  1. Run trials with different initial concentrations NONo22(g)(g) and measure the initial reaction rates.
  2. Run trials with different initial concentrations of CO(g) and measure the initial reaction rates.
  3. Conduct experiments to identify the reaction intermediate (s).
  4. It is not possible to distinguish between the two proposed reaction mechanisms.

Problem 1 Consider the following reaction between nitrogen dioxide gas and carbon monoxide gas NO2 (g) + CO (g) → NO (g) + CO2 (g) The experimentally determined rate law for this reaction is Rate = k [NO2]². A possible reaction mechanism involves two steps as shown below NO2 (g) + NO2 (g)→ NO3 (g) + NO (g) Slow NO3 (g) + CO (g) → NO2 (g) + CO2 (g) Fast Are there any intermediates in the proposed mechanism? If present, identify them. Which is the rate-determining step in the mechanism – the 1st one or the 2nd one? Why? What is the rate law for the rate determining step based on its molecularity? What is the rate law for the mechanism? How does the rate law for the overall reaction match the experimental rate law?
