Multiple Choice

A possible mechanism for the reaction 2NO(g) + O₂(g) $\rightarrow$ 2NO₂(g)
Is:
2NO(g)
$f$
N₂O₂(g)
K₁,K₁',Fast
N₂O₂(g) + O₂(g) $\rightarrow$ 2NO₂(g)
K₂,Slow
Application of the steady-state approximation gives

• A) [N₂O₂] = 0.
• B) k₁[NO]² - k₂[N₂O₂][O₂] = 0.
• C) [N₂O₂] = (k₁/k₂)[NO]².
• D) k₁[NO]² - k₁'[N₂O₂] -k₂[N₂O₂][O₂] = 0.
• E) [N₂O₂] = (k₁/k₁')[NO]².
