Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Understand that an intermediate in a chemical reaction mechanism is a species that is produced in one step and consumed in a subsequent step.
Examine Step 1: NO2 → NO + O. Here, NO2 is converted into NO and O. The species O is produced in this step.
Examine Step 2: O + NO2 → O2 + NO. In this step, the species O, which was produced in Step 1, is consumed.
Since O is produced in Step 1 and consumed in Step 2, it fits the definition of an intermediate.
Conclude that the intermediate in the given mechanism is the species O.
