Question

A reaction occurs in the following steps:

Step 1: \[\ce{NO_{2(g)} + F_2 -> NO2F_{(g)} + F_{(g)}}\] (slow)

Step 2: \[\ce{F_{(g)} + NO_{2(g)} -> NO_2F}\] (Fast)

  1. Write the equation of overall reaction.
  2. Write the rate law.
  3. Identify reaction intermediate.

Solution

  1. Overall reaction: \[\ce{2NO_{2(g)} + F_{2(g)} -> 2NO2F_{(g)}}\]
  2. Step 1 is slow. The rate law of the reaction is predicted from its stoichiometry. Thus, rate = k[NO2] [F2]
  3. F is produced in step 1 and consumed in step 2. Hence, F is the reaction intermediate.
