The gas-phase decomposition of ozone is thought to occur by the following two-step mechanism.
Step 1: O3(g) ⇌ O2(g) + O(g) (fast)
Step 2: O(g) + O3(g) → 2 O2 (slow)
(a) Write the balanced equation for the overall reaction.

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Identify the reactants and products in each step of the mechanism. In Step 1, ozone (O3) decomposes into oxygen (O2) and an oxygen atom (O). In Step 2, the oxygen atom (O) reacts with another ozone molecule (O3) to form two oxygen molecules (2 O2).
Add the two steps together to find the overall reaction. This involves summing up all reactants and products from both steps.
Cancel out any intermediates that appear on both sides of the reaction. In this case, the oxygen atom (O) is an intermediate that appears as a product in Step 1 and a reactant in Step 2, so it cancels out.
Combine the remaining reactants and products to write the balanced equation for the overall reaction. After canceling the intermediate, you should have the reactants and products that represent the overall process.
Verify that the equation is balanced by ensuring that the number of each type of atom is the same on both sides of the equation. This confirms that the overall reaction is correctly represented.

주요 개념

질문에 올바르게 답하기 위해 반드시 이해해야 하는 핵심 개념들은 다음과 같습니다.

Balanced Chemical Equation

A balanced chemical equation represents a chemical reaction with equal numbers of each type of atom on both sides of the equation. This ensures the law of conservation of mass is upheld, meaning that matter is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. Balancing involves adjusting coefficients in front of the chemical formulas to achieve this equality.

Reaction Mechanism

A reaction mechanism is a detailed description of the steps involved in a chemical reaction, including the sequence of elementary reactions. Each step can vary in speed, with some being fast and others slow, which affects the overall rate of the reaction. Understanding the mechanism helps in predicting the products and the rate of the reaction.

Elementary Reactions

Elementary reactions are single-step processes that describe the direct transformation of reactants into products. Each elementary reaction has its own rate law, which can be determined experimentally. In the given mechanism, the first step is fast and reversible, while the second step is slow and irreversible, influencing the overall reaction dynamics.

The following mechanism has been proposed for the reaction of NO with H2 to form N2O and H2O:

NO(g) + NO(g) → N2O2(g)

N2O2(g) + H2(g) → N2O(g) + H2O(g)

(d) The observed rate law is rate = k[NO]2[H2]. If the proposed mechanism is correct, what can we conclude about the relative speeds of the first and second reactions?
