Question

Mark each of the following statements as either True or False: The rate law is deduced directly from the coefficients of the overall reaction. The rate equation for this mechanism is rate = k [O][ClO]. ClO(g) is an intermediate formed in this reaction mechanism. Step 2 of the mechanism is a bimolecular. The sum of the two steps is equal to the overall reaction: O(g) + O3(g) → 2O2(g). Cl(g) is a catalyst in this reaction mechanism.

Answer 1

Details of true/false statements are given below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate law is deduced directly from the coefficients of the overall reaction. False

The rate equation for this mechanism is rate = k [O][ClO]. ClO(g) is an intermediate formed in this reaction mechanism. True

Step 2 of the mechanism is a bimolecular. True

The sum of the two steps is equal to the overall reaction: O(g) + O3(g) → 2O2(g). True

Cl(g) is a catalyst in this reaction mechanism. True
