Detailed Solution

For the reaction , 2NO +Cl22NOCl

NO+Cl2NOCl2; fasteqn(1)

NO+NOCl22NOCl; slow eqn(2)

According to rate law the rate has been determined from slowest step from the reaction mechanism.

Rate,r=KNONOCl2; from slow stepeqn(3)From eqn (1), equilibrium constant is

K1=NOCl2NOCl2

So,[NOCl2]=K1[NO][Cl2]

Substitute this value in eqn(3) , then we will get

Rate,r=KNONOCl2

Rate,r=KNO2Cl2
