Textbook Question
Chapter 22, Problem 10E
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?
- Run trials with different initial concentrations NONo22(g)(g) and measure the initial reaction rates.
- Run trials with different initial concentrations of CO(g) and measure the initial reaction rates.
- Conduct experiments to identify the reaction intermediate (s).
- It is not possible to distinguish between the two proposed reaction mechanisms.
