Textbook Question
Chapter 2, Problem 27E
The addition of No accelerates the decomposition of N2O, possibly by the following mechanism:
NO (g) + N2O (g) →N2 (g) + NO2 (g)
2NO2 (g) → 2NO (g) +O2 (g)
- What is the chemical equation for the overall reaction? Show how the two steps can be added to give the overall equation. (b) Is NO serving as a catalyst or an intermediate in this reaction? (c) If experiments shows that during the decomposition of N2O, NO2 does not accumulate in measurable quantities, does this rule out the proposed mechanism?

Some important notes:
• Draw the major product, or products, of the reaction in the drawing area below.
• If there aren't any products, because no reaction will take place, check the box below the drawing area instead.
• Be sure to use wedge and dash bonds when necessary, for example to distinguish between major products that are
enantiomers.
