What is the rate law for the reaction?
What is the reaction order?
What is the value of the rate constant, k?
order w.r.t NO2
(a1/a2)^x = r1/r2
(0.017/0.034)^x = ((9.6*10^-3)/(1.9*10^-2))
x = 1
order w.r.t F2
(a2/a3)^y = r2/r3
(0.064/0.128)^y = ((1.9*10^-2)/(3.8*10^-2))
y = 1
reaction order = x+y = 1+1 = 2
rate law,
rate = k[NO2][F2]
rate constant(k) = rate/[NO2][F2]
k = (9.6*10^-3)/(0.017*0.064)
= 8.82 M-1.S-1
